Waterfowl and woodland species are migrating at Leaser Lake, and now is a good time to watch them. The Lehigh Valley Audubon Society is sponsoring a field trip to the lake on Saturday, October 7, from 8 to 11 a.m.
You are apt to see a wide range of passerines, a category of birds that include orioles, cuckoos, videos, warblers, tanagers, buntings, finches, mockingbirds, thrushes, flycatchers and wrens.
Meet at the North Launch at the lake, the parking lot closest to the ridge. The lake is located off Ontelaunee Road in New Tripoli, Lehigh County. Carpooling is a good idea. Participants will drive around the lake, stopping at key points for walks. The terrain is relatively flat, making walking easy. Bring a snack if you wish.
If you have a spotting scope, please bring it. If you don't, you can always borrow a peak through someone else's scope.
Frank Dickman will lead the event. To RSVP, visit the Lehigh Valley Audubon Society's meet-up page. The event is free and open to the public.
