Shopping for Birds
North Conway, located in the Mt. Washington valley, is a popular destination for outlet shopping. If you’re thinking of heading that way for some early (dare we mention it?) holiday shopping, then make some time to stop off at one of NH Audubon’s premier sanctuaries located off Route 16 just before the LL Bean outlet store. The Dahl Wildlife Sanctuary has a mix of habitats that include coniferous forest, grassland, shrub land and riverside all in a compact 60 acres. With 29 warbler species and a wide diversity of migratory birds reported here, you can start your day shopping for birds – and have money left for the outlets! Learn more about the sanctuary and get a shopping list of possible birds in the Fall 2018 issue of New Hampshire Bird Records: https://nhbirdrecords.org/nhbr-pdfs/V37%20N3%20Fall%202018%20web.pdf. (“Birding NH Audubon’s Dahl Wildlife Sanctuary” begins on page 42).
Other articles in this issue include: It’s Squirrel-maggedon!; Duck, Duck Goose; Falling in Love with Warblers; field notes from the 2018 fall season and of course a Photo Quiz. Enjoy them all!
New Hampshire Bird Records is providing free access to its archives during the Covid-19 outbreak to help birders find information on birding locally and to remind us of the joy of birding.
