Field Trip – Great Meadows Unit, Stewart B. McKinney National Wildlife Refuge, Stratford – Corrie Folsom-O’Keefe

October 1, 2023 @ 8:00 am - 11:00 am

The salt marshes of Connecticut express muted hues of gold and russet in autumn. These colors are the backdrop for the early fall migration. Visit one of the state’s largest salt marshes to observe warblers, wading birds, shorebirds, migrating sparrows and swallows, Merlins, and Northern Harriers. Join Corrie Folsom-O’Keefe, Director of Bird Conservation for Audubon Connecticut, and Kris Vagos, wildlife biologist for the Stewart B. McKinney NWR. They will also discuss salt marsh ecology and the marsh restoration project in progress at Great Meadows. Meet in the parking lot, approximate address 600 Long Beach Boulevard, Stratford.

Leader: Corrie Folsom-O’Keefe, 203-233-0535 or
