Join Bill Randolph and Carol Fournier for an exploration of this portion of the trail. We’ll be doing a slow trip through diverse habitat where we’ll have an opportunity to view early migrants to the area as well as belted kingfishers, green herons, waterfowl, hawks and other raptors. We’ll meet at the Rail Trail parking area off Station Road in Amherst where there is ample parking and a porta-potty. There is limited seating on the trail which is paved and fairly level. Questions? Email Bill at warandolph@comcast.net. Limited to 15 participants. (E)
