Don Torino of Bergen County Audubon loves Mill Creek Marsh so much he talked the Meadowlands Commission into co-sponsoring a free "bonus" walk this month. The walk begins at 10 a.m. at the entrance to Mill Creek Marsh. Directions are on the left-hand column of this blog.

Bonus Nature Walk with the NJMC and BCAS
We thought we would check out Mill Creek Marsh in Secaucus for this bonus free two-hour walk. It’s a great place to see raptors and waterfowl – and those amazing ancient cedar stumps. We meet at the trail’s entrance, just off Park Plaza Drive. You can also meet us at the visitors’ parking lot at DeKorte Park in Lyndhurst at 9:45 a.m. and carpool. The walk is run by the New Jersey Meadowlands Commission and the Bergen County Audubon Society. Check meadowblog.net for last-minute weather updates.
