Our next walk with the Bergen County Audubon is in the legendary Harrier Meadow on Sunday, Nov. 3, at 10 a.m. Part of the fun will be seeing three new native-plant gardens for the first time.
The gardens were provided by a grant from the National Audubon Society and Bergen County Audubon Society (thank you!). We’ll post more details about the gardens as the day approaches, but save the date now. Sneak preview of one of the gardens is above. (Thanks, Audubons!)
Details follow.
Sunday, Nov. 3, 10 a.m. – noon
First-Sunday-of-the-Month Bird Walk with the NJMC and BCAS
By popular demand, we are hosting a Harrier Meadow walk on a weekend. The 70-acre natural area is normally closed to the public, and we never know what amazing birds we might see there – beginning with a Bald Eagle or two and other raptors. Harrier Meadow is on Disposal Road near Schuyler Avenue. The walk is run by the New Jersey Meadowlands Commission and the Bergen County Audubon Society. Check meadowblog.net for last-minute updates. You will have to sign a standard liability release that is good for NJMC/BCAS events throughout the year. To rsvp, contact Don Torino of the BCAS at greatauk4@aol.com or 201-230-4983.
