The Stanton Bird Club will hold a walk this Wednesday, June 24 at Viles Arboretum in Augusta. We will meet at the regular location, the Promenade Mall (855 Lisbon St.) parking lot near Staples in Lewiston at 8am. If you prefer, meet us at the arboretum in the main parking lot by the visitor center at 8:45.

The arboretum usually has lots of good birds. We will look primarily for resident birds along with the gardens. The trails are mostly gravel or woods paths. We will meet even if it is drizzling, but if there is a steady rain at 7am and it is projected to continue to 10am, the walk is canceled. The walk will end by 11am or maybe a bit after but you may leave early if desired. We encourage those attending to bring a picnic lunch, although this is optional. For those who stay, we will picnic at the arboretum and should be back in Lewiston by 1pm.

Please join us, all walks are free and open to anyone who likes nature, enjoys walking, and wants to see new places. We hope you will join us. For any questions, call Stan or Joan DeOrsey at 933-2266 or email [email protected].
