We are extending the Fall deadline for our small grants program. Applications will be accepted through November 20th. See the "Grants" page for program details! (http://laramieaudubon.blogspot.com/p/small-grants-program.html)
At 8 a.m. on Saturday morning (November 6th) we will meet in the parking lot on the west side of the West Laramie Fly Store (1657 Snowy Range Road) and then caravan to various lakes in the Laramie Valley, potentially including Blakes Pond, Meeboer, Gelatt, Twin Buttes Reservoir, and/or Lake Hattie. From eBird reports, it looks like large flocks of Redheads and many other migrants are now arriving at Lake Hattie.
This trip will involve minimal walking, as we will probably observe from the parking areas at each stop. We plan to be home by noon, but everyone is free to leave earlier (or extend their trip). Although Saturday's weather looks promising, please remember to bring plenty of warm clothes, because it may be cold in the morning and there will be no protection from the wind. We also suggest bringing your birding supplies (binoculars, bird books, etc.) as well as sun protection, snacks, water, and a friend.
