Join amateur bird watchers Mike MacPherson and Jeff Mills on a two-wheeled birding adventure. We’ll meet at Groundz (78 Mill St., Almonte) at 8 a.m. on Sunday, June 7 for a cup of Equator coffee and one of Sheri’s morning goodies before setting off.  If you are arriving by car there is plenty of parking on the market square behind Groundz.

Our leisurely ride takes us north to the hamlet of Blakeney, then across the Mississippi to the Mill of Kintail Conservation Area, before returning to Almonte. We’ll visit the viewing platform near Auld Kirk at the Almonte sewage lagoons as mentioned in “A Bird-Finding Guide to Ontario.”

This trip is open to all. Bring a lunch or snacks for along the way, and of course water. Binoculars and cameras recommended. Each participant will receive a copy of MVFN’s latest brochure “Birdwatching in Lanark County.” Feel free to contact bicyclemonth@gmail.com with any questions.
