Date: Sunday, May 4 at 9:00 A.M.
Location: Albany Wastewater Treatment Ponds
Join fellow birdwatchers as we search for shorebirds and other migrants at the Albany Wastewater Treatment Ponds (Pools). Plan on meeting at the ponds at 9:00 A.M. Besides shorebirds, we should expect to find a plethora of waterfowl, gulls, and waterbirds. We may also visit Getchell lake which is only a few minutes drive away. A few pairs of binoculars will be available to borrow if you wish. A spotting scope will
also be available for use.
The Albany sewage ponds are located south of I-94 near Albany. Take the Albany exit and take a left at the stop sign to go under the freeway. Take a left onto Hwy 41 at the next stop sign. Take a right onto the first dirt road off of Hwy 41. This road runs right along the sewage ponds. We will scan the sewage ponds from the road.
