Hi everyone,
I am very fired up for a weekend of birding with many of you!! Please note that tomorrows walk at the McIlroy Sanctuary in Summerhill begins at a different location from the usual main parking lot. Please see below for directions to that new site and to all preserves. Walks are free, but I still welcome pledges or flat donations to the Land Trust in support of my weekend species tally.
