On Saturday April 14, 2012, Vermont County 2012 Birding Quest will hold a morning field trip led by Chris Rimmer and George Clark and starting at 7:30 AM at Lake Runnemede in Windsor, VT, and likely continuing to at 
least one other location in that town with an ending time around 10:30 
AM. Road instructions are given below; please note that there will be 
carpooling from Norwich. This field trip is free and open to the public. Participants should be able to walk at least a mile over fairly level, 
but sometimes uneven, ground. Bring binoculars and a scope if available. We'll be especially looking for waterbirds and landbird migrants in an 
excellent birding site.

Road and carpooling instructions: From 
Exit 9 off I-91, turn south on Route 5 towards Windsor. After going 
about 3 miles southward on Route 5, look for the Back Forty guns and 
ammo store on the left, with a Price Chopper supermarket just beyond, 
also on the left. This walk will begin at 7:30 AM by the entrance to a 
long driveway directly across Route 5 from the Back Forty store. Please 
do not drive into that driveway, vehicular use of which is reserved for 
local residents. Parking is available along Route 5, but be sure your 
site is legal.

Carpoolers from towns around the Hanover/Norwich 
area are to leave from the River Road commuter parking lot in Norwich by
 the Ledyard Bridge at 7:00 AM that morning. Vehicles are scheduled to 
return to the commuter lot by 11:00 AM.
