Birding at Whitman Spring Road Trail, Aug 22 The Stanton Bird Club of Lewiston and Auburn will host the final in its series of twice-monthly summer bird walks on Wednesday, August 22. All walks are from 8 to 11 a.m., and are free and open to all. For this walk, leaders Stan and Joan DeOrsey ask participants to meet at 8 a.m. at JCPenney’s end parking lot, 550 Center Street, Auburn. All will travel to Whitman Spring Road Trail, Auburn to see early fall migrant birds. The DeOrseys will identify and comment on birds seen and heard. Each walk is approximately two miles long, on an even and dry surface. The DeOrseys suggest bringing binoculars and dressing in layers, to be flexible for the weather. They will hold the walk even if it is drizzling, but if steady rain at 7 a.m. is projected to continue to 10 a.m., the walk is canceled. For more information, or to coordinate meeting the group at the site, call 933-2266 or e-mail jsmd@att.net. http://www.stantonbirdclub.org/triplist.htm
