Join Bill Randolph and explore the mixed conifer and deciduous forest, flooded forest wetland, and marshes in anticipation of new arrival songbirds and warblers, nesting herons and waterfowl. This outing will highlight how bird life changes with the warming of spring. Plan on walking 2–3 miles on fairly flat, uneven terrain with some muddy areas depending upon recent rainfall. There is an option to climb up to a bird observatory overlooking the marsh. It's a good idea to bring repellent for ticks and mosquitos. We will meet at 9:00 am in the parking lot at the end of Cooke Ave (former Moose Lodge) in Northampton. Limited to 12 participants. Please register online at least two days in advance of the trip.
