Field Trip – Birding by Ear at Lufberry Memorial Park, Corrie Folsom-O’Keefe
April 29, 2017 @ 7:00 am - 10:00 am
Ever wanted to learn to bird by ear? On this walk, we will learn mnemonics for about 25 common bird species and look for early spring migrants at Lufberry Memorial Park, a wooded path located on a ridge above the Quinnipiac River. From “tree hugger, tree hugger, tree” to “drink your tea,” you will learn a number of silly phrases that can help you to identify birds. A handout will be provided. This walk is geared to beginners, but birders of all levels and families are welcome. More advanced birders not only can enjoy a day out but also provide support and inspiration to the newcomers. Meet at the parking lot by the park baseball field, Lufberry Memorial Park Road, off Cheshire Road in Wallingford.
