Join naturalist, Cherrie Corey, for a modest hike to meet the season's songbird wave and other harbingers of spring. We will walk in the spirit of Marlboro College biologist, Bob Engel, an inspirational teacher to so many. Bring your binoculars and prepare to attune your eyes and ears to the plumage and song of each species, their preferred habitat and location in the canopy. Along the way, we'll stop at the bird banding station to see how the day's tally is coming and watch Eric Slayton and his team in action.
Meet at the Tower Trail trailhead kiosk, behind the Vermont Distillers building. Plenty of parking across Rte. 9 in the HMCA parking lot.

Cherrie Corey, a Marlboro resident, has been an active naturalist, photographer, and conservation steward for many decades. She served as director of the Harvard Museum of Cultural and Natural History, the Native Plant Trust | New England Wild Flower Society's first education director, and as principal naturalist for Great Meadows NWR in Concord, MA for many years.
