Birders who Blog Chirp and Tweet Field Trip

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!)
