Join Bill Randolph and explore the mixed conifer and deciduous forest, flooded forest wetland, and marshes in anticipation of 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. 

*PLEASE NOTE MEETING LOCATION CHANGE* Due to the construction taking place in the Cooke Ave. parking lot, we will be meeting/parking at the end of Marian Street instead. From North King Street, turn onto Coles Meadow Rd (by the State Police Barracks), go up about 200 yards and turn left at Marian Street. Park at the end of the road. Limited to 12 participants. Please register online at least two days in advance of the trip.
