Norfolk Airport
June 11, 2023 @ 7:00 am - 10:00 am
This former airfield now provides habitat for endangered grassland breeding birds. We hope to find both Grasshopper Sparrow and Eastern Meadowlark on territory in these fields. Bobolinks’ bold and unusual songs and plumage should be a nice bonus on this trip. We will be walking primarily on flat, grassy terrain for a mile or two for the endangered species. We may also extend the walk into some wooded trails in search of other species later in the morning. Target endangered breeding species: Grasshopper Sparrow, Eastern Meadowlark.
