This will be our 15th annual trip to this excellent birding spot. We’ll meet at the commuter lot at Exit 57 off I-95 and carpool to Barn Island. The area consists of large expanses of salt marsh, tidal pools, wetlands, woodlands, and open fields. We should see wading birds, shorebirds, and area residents such as Saltmarsh Sparrow, Marsh Wren, White-eyed Vireo, American Redstart, Willow Flycatcher, Bobolink, and many other species. Meet at 7 a.m. at the commuter lot, I-95 Exit 57, or at 8 a.m. at 96 Palmer Neck Road, Stonington (Bobolink fields).
Note: the yearbook says exit 55 off of 95. Exit 55 is closed for construction. Please use exit 57
