Over Memorial Day weekend, for the sixth consecutive year, I'll visit several Finger Lakes Land Trust preserves with the goal of building awareness and support for the Land Trust's efforts to preserve vital habitat in our region. As part of this effort, called the Finger Lakes Land Trust Spring Bird Quest (FLLT SBQ), I'll be leading at least three walks. Birders of all ages and skill levels, including children, are welcome.
Sunday, May 29 8:00-11:00 AM Lindsay-Parsons Biodiversity Preserve West Danby Meet in the preserve parking lot along Routes 34 and 96. Monday, May 30 6:30-8:00 AM Goetchius Wetland Preserve Caroline Meet along Flatiron Road near the southern end of the preserve. 8:30 AM-11:00 AM Park Nature Preserve (Baldwin Tract) Dryden Meet in the parking lot along Irish Settlement Road. Please stay tuned for a possible Saturday group outing too. As in past years, I'll also be tallying bird species found on Land Trust preserves and raising pledge money. Past such fundraising efforts by me and others have raised more than $20,000 for the Land Trust. Please contact me off list if you would like to make a pledge. I also welcome any inquiries about your joining me in counting species and raising pledges from others. Thank you for your consideration.
