ELECTION DAY SPARROWS AT GARDENS FOR NUTRITION, NYQUIST-HARCOURT WILDLIFE SANCTUARY
November 8, 2016 @ 3:00 am - 8:00 am
Fulfill your civic duty and bird this sparrow hotspot. If time allows we will carpool to visit different habitats for the best variety of sparrow species. Meet at the municipal parking lot, left off of Huguenot St. as you come from Rte. 299, just east of the Wallkill River Bridge. Muck boots are recommended to keep feet dry from the morning dew/frost and dress in layers as temperatures could greatly change from start time to early afternoon. Contact trip leader Mark DeDea (forsythnature@aol.com) to sign up for this outing or with questions.
