Meet trip leader Christine Guarino (chrissy.guarino@gmail.com ) at the SGNWR entrance on County Route 18 (Hoagerburgh Road) at 7:00 am. We will explore grassland and pasture for fall shorebird migrants, particularly “grasspipers” often difficult to find in Ulster County. Carpooling from the refuge and visiting good neighboring habitat. This outing will also provide an opportunity for wonderful butterflying. Remember sun and bug protection. This tour will conclude before noon.
