"The Great Hudson River Excursion/Hudson River EagleFest"

Coordinating with other local birding groups, Bedford Audubon will be a collaborator of this year’s annual EagleFest where numerous events are scheduled at Croton Point Park celebrating the return of these majestic birds to our area. A special BAS field trip is planned to several destinations along the Hudson River, where we expect to see multiple species of ducks, geese, and birds of prey including Bald Eagles. The trip will conclude at George’s Island Park, where Bedford Audubon director Adam Zorn, former president Tony Ianniello, and other BAS birders will greet visitors and point out Bald Eagles and other birds at the park and on the river. Refreshments will be served. Level of difficulty: Easy. 9:00 a.m.

Carpool from Bylane Farm, 35 Todd Road, Katonah at 8:15 a.m. or meet at the Croton River Landing, south of the Croton train station at 9:00 a.m.
