Labrador Pond is between Truxton and Apulia on Rt. 91. Labrador Pond has an accessible boardwalk that is easy to walk. The first two weeks of May will offer excellent opportunities to view our neotropical migrants. Some of the birds that I expect to see there include Nashville warbler, common yellowthroat, yellow warbler, great crested flycatcher, Baltimore oriole, and rose-breasted grosbeak. A short walk along the west side of the pond will yield a few more species such as chestnut-sided warbler, American redstart, blackburnian warbler, and wood thrush. We will probably meet at the Labrador Pond parking lot at 9 and bird until our eyes are tired (yes, you may leave if sensory overload hits you earlier than Steve).
Please note transportation is not provided.

Steve Broyles is a recently retired college educator who taught outdoor biology courses. He is eager to meet folks with a little time on their hand during the week who also share his delight with birds.

Steve will bring a theme to discuss as well. Topics might include how the chickadee remembers where it stored food, what is up with the American goldfinch color patches, do birds recognize their neighbors, why do juncos feed on the ground, but nuthatches prefer branches?
Shake the winter-time blues away with this informal weekly gathering at Lime Hollow Visitors Center on McLean Rd. This will be an opportunity to share observations on winter birds while observing the well-stock bird feeders from the warmth of the bird room with a selection of bird-friendly coffee to sip on.
