Plum Island in Fall
Did you know that November is the month that vagrant birds most often
turn up along the coast? Join us to enjoy the red and gold colors of the
marsh and observe the lingering egrets mingling with incoming ducks. No
guarantees of any vagrants...we will just see what we find. Meet at Parking
Lot 1 of the Parker
River National Wildlife Refuge. Please note that there is a $5 per
vehicle entrance charge unless you have a refuge pass or a Duck Stamp.
9:00AM-2:00PM Ann Gurka and
Lew

Saturday, November 22
Fresh Pond Reservoir, Cambridge
This pond, which is part of the Cambridge water supply, is well known
for the variety of ducks (both diving and dabbling) stopping here in fall.
We have seen Canvasbacks, Redheads, Ring-necked Ducks, Ruddy Ducks, Mergansers,
Grebes, and more! We may walk around the entire reservoir, so be prepared
for a 2-3 mile walk on flat, prepared ground. Bring your scopes. Meet at
the rear of the parking lot at the Burger
King on Concord Avenue, near Neville Manor. 9:00-11:00AM. Janet
Crystal and Nancy Guppy
