Folks,

This Saturday there will be a walk in the South River Greenway at the
Bacon Ridge Branch.  Last year's walk was fantastic, with loads of
blue skies and singing birds.  This year's walk (being a week later in
the spring migration), promises to be even more migrant-rich with
warblers, vireos and perhaps even some peeps.

The link to ALL of the details can be found on the Scenic Rivers Land
Trust's website: http://www.srlt.org/events.shtml#walk

The trails wind through some marshy areas, lots of thick forest,
complete with a slow moving stream, open fields and even a large pond.
 One other added perk: the WWTP's containment ponds on the walk into
the property from the parking area could prove interesting for
shorebirds.

If you'd like to enjoy some fantastic habitat in Anne Arundel County
(that part you've driven past on I-97 heading towards Annapolis), then
this is a rare opportunity that shouldn't be missed.

Best,

Dan Haas
West Annapolis, MD
