The refuge staff and volunteers will be leading guided bird walks in the morning to count as many species of migratory birds using the refuge as we can. We will gather for lunch provided by the Friends of Missisquoi NWR. A short presentation about the mornings results will be followed by a speaker at 1 pm, Boomer Malachunk (SUNY Plattsburg) who will discuss his current research on cavity nesting waterfowl on the refuge.
New this year will be an Early Bird bird walk starting at 5:30 am and a Beginner's Bird Walk starting with the other regularly scheduled walks (7:30 am).
The refuge will also be hosting a local art show featuring area wildlife. Come visit the refuge, enjoy the many trails and learn about the diversity of migratory birds visiting Vermont!
Time: 7:30 am - 2 pm. Walks leave about 7:45 am.
