8:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Location
191 West Pomeroy Lane. Amherst MA.

Registration is full. Join the HBC Education Committee at Hickory Ridge, the former golf course in Amherst, MA. This 150-acre parcel has grown into a natural beauty, also providing ecological resources, and with nearly 2 miles of the Fort River passing through, it has become an important open woodland habitat. Some of the existing cart paths provide access throughout most of the land. Who knows what birds we will see as we explore the area? We will also be learning about birding using and discussing birding tools, guides and equipment when birding in the field. The pathways are flat with easy access to parking and walking. (E)
