Join Washington Crossing Audubon Society (www.washingtoncrossingaudubon.org) at 8 AM on Sunday, September 16, for a free, public birding trip at the Featherbed Lane Banding Station. Led by Mark Witmer and Hannah Suthers, this unique field trip will expose you to the ongoing research conducted for over 40 years by Hannah Suthers and her volunteers (hopewell-birds.freehostia.com). You will see the entire process of bird banding and learn what data are collected. We are likely to see a variety of species, including warblers, thrushes, wrens, and Hannah's favorite, the catbird. Note that registration is required and limited to 12 persons: Call Brad Merritt at (609) 921-8964 to register.

Directions: Registered participants should meet at Featherbed Lane. From Rt. 518 in Hopewell, Turn North on Greenwood Avenue and drive approximately 1.5 miles. Turn right onto Featherbed Lane and go about 0.5 miles to the banding area. Park on the right side of the lane.
