DOWNEAST WINTER BIRDFEST
March 19 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
Leaders: Sandi and Bob Duchesne, both fully vaccinated and boosted. We will carpool via Ellsworth and then follow Coastal Route 1 to the Schoodic Peninsula, stopping at numerous hot spots along the way to check for wintering seabirds, bald eagles, unusual gulls, finches, and other winter specialties. We’ll take a few short walks (all optional), including the opportunity to climb down the shelf-like rocks at Schoodic Point to get closer to the water, but no long hikes. Meet at Fields Pond Audubon Center at 8:00 a.m. to carpool, or call Sandi at 735-5436 to arrange to meet us along the route. Please bring your own brown-bag lunch and snacks.
Saturday, March 19/Rain Date Sunday, March 20, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
