This is the first of what I expect will be a few posts about this event.

Saturday, June 13th.

Why you ask? Well, Dawn and Jeff from Dawn's Bloggy Blog will be rolling into Massachusetts in June, and we had started talking about going birding while they are here. Dawn then proposed that we open this up and make it a bird/nature blogger/twitterer event. You see, a lot of bloggers and twitterers know each other from following blogs, chirptracker, twitter-feeds, etc, but may not actually meet face-to-face. Oh sure, it certainly does happen - big events like the World Series of Birding, RGV Birding Festival, and the like will draw people from the same social networking sites.
And this will be another opportunity to do so.

We have't settled on a location yet - I think that will depend upon where people are coming from and what they'd like to see. My first thoughts naturally lean towards Mount Auburn Cemetery or Plum Island.

Wherever we decide, I like to think that we'll be keeping an eye towards the fact that we're all bloggers/twitterers/chirpers - nobody will be rushing you if you wish to take your time to take notes, sketch, digiscope or otherwise take photos.

So please consider joining us on June 13th for a day of birding, social networking, and maybe meeting a few cyberspace friends.

Stay tuned for more details.
