Meet Mattabeseck Audubon Society secretary, Sharon Dellinger, for a nice, flat walk along the Airline Trail. Spring is in the air and birds will be singing. We will identify birds by ear, and hopefully many by sight. Prior hikes during this time have found many Red-eyed Vireo, along with American Redstart, Scarlet Tanager, Worm-eating Warbler, Great-crested Flycatcher, Eastern Wood Pewee among others.

Contact the leader to let her know you will be joining. Let her know if you need to borrow a pair of binoculars as MAS has several pairs for birders who need them.
