New Year’s Day on the Burlington Waterfront
Members of the Green Mountain Audubon Society and guests started off 2023 with a New Year’s Day Birding excursion along the Burlington waterfront. Twelve birders braved damp conditions and strong winds out of the northwest, catching sight of fifteen avian species, the highlight of which was a lone Snow Goose flying overhead in the midst of a string of Canada Geese. While all hoped to report a more diverse array of birds, everyone agreed that it was indeed a fine way to bring in the New Year!
