A chapter of Maine Audubon
Leaders: Bob Milardo*, Val Watson*, and Rachel Darling
Join us for a spring migration tour to productive birding hotspots in central Maine, with a focus on species that rest and refuel on Maine’s ponds, rivers, and lakes as they open up. We will make multiple stops including Plymouth Pond, Sebasticook Lake-Durham Bridge, Sprague’s Mill, and Corinna Bog/Corundel Lake. We expect to spot a wide variety of waterfowl and wading birds, shorebirds en route to their sub-Arctic breeding grounds, and plenty of other resident and migratory species. Bring binoculars or camera, and a spotting scope if you have one; the guides will also share theirs.
Directions: Meet at the commuter Park-and-Ride lot east of I-95 at Exit 174 (Carmel-Newburgh), directly across from the Dysarts convenience store. PLEASE NOTE: parking along the route is very limited, so carpooling is a must.
