SUMMARY:Cancelled due to inclement weather -Hartford Audubon: Fall Migration at Rosedale Farms Bird Walk
DESCRIPTION:Fall Migration at Rosedale Farms\n\n\n25 East Weatogue Street\, Simsbury — Park at the farm stand parking lot and walk down\, or park further in the grassy area on the left of the dirt road. Meet at the kiosk at the end of the dirt road. \nRosedale Farms and Vineyards is a historic family farm that is not only known for its locally grown fresh produce and wine but also offers a variety of habitats that makes it a great birding location during Fall migration. A combination of agricultural land and fields\, woodlands\, two ponds\, a stream and frontage on the Farmington River bring in a nice variety of migrating sparrows\, warblers\, songbirds and raptors. The walk will last approximately 2 hours\, and the terrain is easy and flat. We are hoping to find some late warblers\, up to seven sparrow species and other migrating birds. Come and join us and see how many birds we can find! \nGillian Smits – gillian.smits@gmail.com – 860-930-4198 T \n \n
