SUMMARY:Come Bird in the Dolan Pond Conservation Area!
DESCRIPTION:Come bird with longtime avian enthusiasts Ian Buzby\, Michael H
 anley\, and Ted Kuklinski (a past president of Newton Conservators) at Dol
 an Pond and see migrating warblers\, thrushes\, and other newly arrived co
 lorful residents. The trip leaders have collectively recorded over 300 eBi
 rd sightings at this rich habitat.\n\nIn addition to being a Newton eBird 
 hotspot (https://ebird.org/hotspot/L2829294/bird-list) this nine-acre cons
 ervation area is home to the vernal pools that herons\, wood ducks\, turtl
 es\, and frogs frequent.  The terrain includes accessible wooded paths an
 d a boardwalk.  Bring binoculars if you have them. Children and beginners
  are welcome. Meet near 76 Webster Park\, WestNewton\, and park around the
  inner Webster Park circle.  Depending on number of participants\, we may
  break up into smaller groups.  Pre-registration is encouraged to help us
  plan and to be notified in case of cancellation due to bad weather.\n\nAs
  of Friday evening\, the walk is ON.  The temps are expected to be about 
 50 from 8-10 am.   Unfortunately\, the forecast is for wet weather on Sa
 turday but with the heaviest in the later afternoon.  And often the weath
 er changes from the prediction - it's New England!  We expect to be there
  on Saturday morning and will be birding even if showering a bit.  If you
  are coming\, have footwear that can stand getting a little moist and cons
 ider a poncho or small umbrella just in case\, and a hat or cap.   A lot
  of birding can be done by ear.  Nice weather for ducks may bring out the
  resident wood ducks or the recent mallard babies.  Use your judgment in 
 the morning.  A steady hard rain may cancel the walk.  \n\nTrip Contact
