Join Craig Allen and Brian Zylich for an outing around the south end of the Quabbin Reservoir searching for spring migrants and waterfowl. We'll look and listen for birds on land and on the water. Meet at the Quabbin Visitor Center (100 Winsor Dam Rd. in Belchertown) at 7 am for a walk along the dam and various other parts of Quabbin Park. We will be carpooling to visit various spots around the park. We will primarily be traveling on paved roads/sidewalks. Many sections of the road are relatively flat, but some may be steeper. We may also go for a short walk on a relatively flat dirt/gravel trail. Bring water, snacks, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, appropriate footwear, and outerwear. Note: there is usually a porta-potty at the parking lot, but this is not guaranteed. Limited to 10 participants. (E)
