Eagles at Quabbin Reservoir

Each year up to 30 bald eagles find enough food to winter at Quabbin Reservoir in central Massachusetts. For this trip, we will first stop at the Quabbin Visitor Center to learn a bit about the reservoir's history and receive an update on the most recent eagle locations. Afterward, we will drive to various lookout points to search for eagles. In addition, we will take short walks (perhaps on snowshoes) in search of signs of wildlife such as ruffed grouse, wild turkeys, porcupines, and coyotes. If the reservoir is not frozen, we may see waterfowl as well. For those leaving from Berkshire County, space for the first five registrants will be available in the sanctuary van. We will depart from Lee at 8:30 am. Registration is required. Call (413) 637-0320 for details. See http://www.massaudubon.org/catalog/listing.php?program_code=2-PV12WI1 for more information.
