Greetings, Fellow Birders! The Big Bluestem Audubon Society's October field trip is scheduled for this Saturday. Dunbar Slough in western Greene County and Swan Lake State Park, which is just south of Carroll, are the destinations. Both areas are great for waterfowl, raptors and passerines! We will convene in the parking lot just behind Wild Birds Unlimited in Ames.Departure time is 8 am sharp. Those wishing to attend should show up at least a few minutes prior so that we can arrange carpooling.
We will bird Dunbar until lunch, at which time we will head into Carroll to find a place to eat. We will then finish out the day at Swan Lake State Park. Please join! Happy Birding To All!
