Field Trip: Grandview Nature Preserve

On Saturday, November 15, Nancy Barnhart will lead us at Grandview Nature Preserve in Hampton.  This trip usually provides early views of wintering waterfowl, with loons, scoters, buffleheads among others riding the waves off the beach, while shorebirds scuttle across the sand.  And the walk through the marsh to get to the beach frequently has some unusual species, like the Sedge Wren identified each of the last two years.  

We’ll meet at the entrance to the park at 8 a.m.  The entrance is at the end of State Park Drive.  Google Map directions are reliable.  Park along State Park Drive.

Carpooling:  if you’d like to carpool, or if you can drive others, please let me know at grm0803@gmail.com.  Those wishing to carpool should meet at the Colony Square Shopping Center a little after 7 a.m., for a departure no later than 7:10 a.m.  As of this writing, one person has expressed an interest in being either a driver or a rider, depending on demand.

Free and open to the public
