Hi everyone, Please consider joining me over Memorial Day weekend for the Finger Lakes Land Trust Spring Bird Quest (SBQ), a series of outings celebrating our local birds and the Land Trust's work in protecting their vital habitats. See below for a list of walks I'll be leading. For full details, including site descriptions and directions, see https://www.fllt.org/events/.
As always, these SBQ events are free, but I will welcome donations in support of the Land Trust. If you care to make a pledge, as either a fixed amount or an amount per species I find over the weekend on Land Trust preserves, please contact me off-list. I am very grateful even for the smallest donations! (I think that we've collectively raised about $75K for the Land Trust through the SBQ since its inception in 2006.) In addition, a week from tomorrow (Saturday, May 18), my son Tilden Chao will be leading a free birding walk for kids (age 5 and up) at the Roy H. Park Preserve (south), starting at 9:30 AM. All kids must be accompanied by a parent or other responsible adult. More details at the link above. I am looking forward to some great birding with many of you!
