on Saturday, July 20, 2019 from 8:00 am to 11:00 am Wimisink Preserve in Sherman , Ct. Spend a morning with plant enthusiasts and learn about the plants upon which birds depend while we birders show them the birds that visit the plants that they know and love. On this joint event of the CT Botanical Society and the Connecticut Ornithological Association we’ll visit a freshwater wetland where Least Bittern and other marsh birds are known to breed. We may also visit the nearby Giddings Preserve. Meet at the parking lot to the Wimisink Preserve on Route 39, just south of Route 55 (1/2 mile west of Route 7 in Sherman). The workshop is free and open to COA members and non-members alike. Leaders: John Anderson, CBS, C: 860-248-1053; Chris Loscalzo at: closcalz@optonline.net and 203 389-6508.
