Assunpink WMA

This productive locale has a mix of fields, woods, wetlands, and lakes. We may see a good variety of waterfowl, sparrows, and other land birds. In recent years a pair of Trumpeter Swans has wintered here. There are no guaranteed restrooms on this trip with one or two possible port-a-johns on site. Be prepared for a moderate amount of walking over varied terrain. Bring lunch and wear weather-appropriate clothing. Led by Scott Barnes and Linda Mack.

WEATHER & TRANSPORTATION: Please arrive at the appointed time. Be sure to check the forecast in advance and dress in layers appropriate for prevailing weather conditions. We sometimes bird in the rain, so bring rain gear if warranted. Transportation during the field trip is by private vehicle (be sure you have enough gas). Most trips involve some amount of walking, sometimes through muddy or sandy terrain.
