Description
The focus will be on birding and botanizing and the pace will be determined by sightings. Bring binoculars, bird identification books and your knowledge to share. We will drive to km 7.6 where there is limited parking along Concession 10. We will explore the Dunedin Valley and Gardner BTC owned properties which offer a variety of habitats including two meadows where male Bobolinks may be singing tunes to their ladies. The overhead canopy will be starting to shade the forest floor but there should be flowers to find. Bring a snack, water and bug dope (repellent).
