Hi Folks, I'm writing to let everyone know about the inaugural Seneca White Deer Festival happening on *Saturday, October 5th* at the Seneca Army Depot/Seneca White Deer HQ (5479 NY-96A Romulus, NY US 14541)
I've been talking to the organizers, and HAD recently agreed to lead a pair of hour-long bird walks at* 11:15 and 1:15*. I thought this would be exciting to our local birding community as it means visiting a usually inaccessible area with tons and tons of scrubby and open habitat during prime sparrow migration season. HOWEVER, a conflict has arisen on that weekend, and it looks like I will have to back out. So I'm hoping that I can find one, two, or even a small handful of people who might be willing to take this on in my stead. The details were just hammered out this week, and the event has not really been promoted yet, but I would hate to see this opportunity for the local birding community slip by. *Please let me know* if you might be willing to jump in and lead one or both of these walks. There would also be an (optional) opportunity to scout the location on the mornings of October 1st or 2nd. I can put you in touch with the organizer. Thanks in advance for considering!
