Greetings!
My Saturday reports for the Audubon Boreal Bird Trip for Migratory Bird Day and my brief stop on the way home to Chickering Bog. Oddly enough, it did not rain throughout our time at the Victory Basin IBA, only when I got to Chickering did it pour!
Thank you to Tom Barriman for a great trip and to Northeast Kingdom Audubon for partnering with us on the trip. It was a great way to celebrate the boreal theme of Migratory Bird Day.
