This extensive driving tour of the large natural area to our northeast always turns up some great birds! We’ll look for unusual ducks, late winter birds, and interesting migrants like Fox Sparrows. One portion of the trip is walking on a wide, mainly flat, sometimes muddy, trail. Bring a snack to munch on to keep your energy up, and dress for the weather! Restrooms are available at Sodus Point Park and Chimney Bluffs State Park.
Meet at 7:30 a.m. in Webster Plaza at the junction of Route 404 and Hard Road near Starbucks. Spotting scopes would be very useful.
