A guided bird walk along the Delaware & Raritan Canal in the vicinity of Lake Carnegie will be held Sunday, June 4, beginning at 8 a.m.
Leader Lynn Hunt has selected this 3.2-mile round-trip route for the variety of habitats woods, open lakeshore, marsh and scrub.
Participants are invited to meet at Turning Basin Park parking lot on the south side of Alexander Street, West Windsor, between the steel truss Stony Brook bridge and the bridge over the canal. The walk will proceed to the Millstone River aqueduct north of Harrison Street and then turn around.
Participants could find yellow warbler, green heron, rose-breasted grosbeak, great blue heron and white-eyed vireo. Binoculars are recommended. No prior birding experience is necessary.
To be held rain or shine, the free walk is open to all ages. No reservations are needed. For more information, call (609) 924-2683.
The D&R Canal Watch is a nonprofit citizens’ organization formed to help promote, enhance and preserve the Delaware & Raritan Canal State Park.
