Dear LABIRD,
The Orleans Audubon Society birding trip location scheduled for this
Saturday has been changed from Grand Isle to the Bayou Sauvage National
Wildlife Refuge. Yesterday, the trip leader, John Nelson, scouted Grand
Isle and found a disturbing absence of birds, possibly due to winter storm
Enzo, and an abundance of mosquitoes. Here are the details for the Bayou
Sauvage NWR trip:
*Bayou Sauvage Urban National Wildlife Refuge* – Half Day Trip
*Saturday, February 8, 8:00 a.m.*
Meet at the Ridge Trail parking lot on Chef Hwy: 17160 Chef Menteur Highway
New Orleans, LA 70129. Immediately after crossing the Maxent Canal, look
for the refuge sign and turn onto Ridge Trail Road.
Leader: John Nelson 504-258-1009 <johnnygnelsoniv...>
If you know anyone who was thinking about going, please spread the word
about the change to Bayou Sauvage.
