A driving tour of the farm fields and open lands to the West of Rochester, this trip will search for Snow Bunting, Lapland Longspur, Northern Shrike, and hawks in the plains and country roads of western Monroe and Orleans counties. If the weather cooperates, we may venture as far as Golden Hill State Park for a look at the lake and a short walk. Dress warmly in layers, bring a snack and a thermos filled with cocoa, and drive along for a few hours: barring the possible walk at Golden Hill, this trip should be handicapped-accessible.

Meet at Braddock Bay Park on East Manitou Rd. in Greece at 9:00 a.m. Extra FRS radios would be very helpful.
