Join Lesley Farlow and Steve Winn for an exploration of the different habitats at the Conte Refuge, beginning with a leisurely 1.2 miles on a flat, fully accessible boardwalk trail looking for fall songbirds and migrant warblers. Benches and lookout areas are situated along the trail. For those who wish to continue in the second half of the trip, we will explore the adjacent grasslands with views of the Holyoke Range and pond areas for wetland birds and raptors. This portion of the trip involves 1–2 miles on a mostly flat dirt/rocky road with some slight hills. Meet at the Silvio O. Conte parking lot at 69 Moody Bridge Road in Hadley. Plenty of parking is available, plus a porta-potty. Limited to 12 participants. (E, Accessible)
