is happening this Saturday, June 13th. It should prove to be an exciting day meeting new friends (or rather meeting friends face-to-face for the first time), with good birds, and hopefully good weather.
I'm not sure if I have mentioned this enough yet, but thanks to Dawn for the idea and really kick-starting this event!
If you haven't heard about this, details can be found here, and here.
Please let me know if you're interested in joining, but even if it is too much to ask you decide, you can just join us on Saturday. All you have to do is meet us at the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge Headquarters and Visitors Center at 8:00am
After birding the refuge for a few hours, and a break for lunch, we'll be heading a little north over the NH border for little while as well.
For those that are interested, we also have two potential trip extensions:
On Sunday morning I will plan on going to Mt. Auburn Cemetery to see what local nesting birds we can find there (and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.)
Alternately, Laurie is planning on going further north to see what boreal specialties she can turn up. (Potential for Bicknell's Thrush, Black-backed Woodpecker, Boreal Chickadee, Yellow-bellied Flycatcher, etc)
Whatever you decide to do, I hope that you have a great weekend of birding.
(And I hope even more that you'll join us!)

Birdingbev is ready. See you on the flip side.
Oh my..tomorrow is the day! I am so grateful to you for arranging all of this!
I am more inclined to go to Mt. Auburn on Sunday with most of the gang...but my arm could possibly be twisted to go to NH. Havent decided.
Finally, less than 24 hours!
All ready to go and meet all these good folks.
Have a great meet-up guys.
I'll be thinking of you tomorrow, while sipping white wine in the Vondelpark in Amsterdam and keeping an eye (and ear) out for the Green-tailed Dwarf Amstelmacaws. (The colony of Rose-ringed Parakeets in the park).
