Hawks Overhead ***New***
As anyone who has been on a hawkwatch will
tell you, identifying a migrating raptor flashing by
overhead or seen at great distance can be
difficult. The indoor segment of this two-part
program will use actual video of the birds to
illustrate not only the traditional field marks but
also the "gestalt" that various species present to
the observer. On the outdoor program we will
trek up Brown Hill on the sanctuary to observe
the actual migration. Bring binoculars, lunch or a
snack, water and a wind shell with gloves.
Friday, Sept 12 from 7-9pm
Saturday, Sept 13 from 9:30am-2:30pm
For more information and to register, call
Wachusett Meadow Sanctuary at 978 464 2712
