Bombay Hook NWR, Leipsic, Delaware Eastern Neck Island NWR, Rock Hall, MD
November 29, 2014 @ 6:25 am
We enter Bombay Hook’s main gate at 6:25 am SHARP and tour the many ponds, pools and fields where we may see and photo- graph as many as 100,000 Snow Geese and many other fall migrants, from raptors to shorebirds. We will also visit other spots in the area including Eastern Neck Island NWR where we’ll
see Tundra Swans. There are a variety of motels and B&Bs in the area. For suggestions about accommodations and other travel details, contact the trip leaders. Directions: To get to Bombay Hook from the south end of Smyrna, go north on US 13 to the Smyrna-Leipsic Road. Take it east for about 5 miles until it joins Rt. 9. Go south about 100 yards to Whitehall Neck Rd. A brown National Wildlife Refuge sign there points down Whitehall Neck Rd. Proceed east down the road through the refuge entrance gate to the headquarters building where we will meet. Leaders: Mike and Pat Horn 203-288-1891 or mfhorn@att.net
