The natural history and unique adaptations of these unique “fish hawks” will be the focus of our walk, but as we walk the mostly level ¼ mile trail, we will also scan the marsh for waders, waterfowl and other raptors. The woodland margins can be excellent for spotting early spring land migrants as well. https://maps.google.com/maps?z=16&daddr=++Old+Lyme+CT+06371+More information about Birds of Pratt Cove |
