On Saturday, May 9, at 8:30 a.m., the Manchester Land Conservation Trust will host a free walk to view and hear birds at our 177.5-acre property in the southwestern area of Manchester, with bird experts Maggie Perretto and David Funke, members of the Hartford Audubon Society. All welcome, whether experienced or new birdwatchers. Bring binoculars, if you have them. Park at 330 Bush Hill Road, Manchester. We’ll stroll at a slow place for about a mile, which will take about an hour, but all are welcome to stay longer to explore five-plus miles of trails at the property. No dogs, please. Rain or shine, but extreme weather cancels.
