This SUNDAY we will be visiting a new-for-me location in Norfolk County, with our Guest Leader Chris Cheatle! Chris suggested a Pipit trip in early July to look for rare butterflies and plants in this area of unique habitat.
Note the parking is roadside, and Concession 6 is hard packed sand. Chris tells me there should be no driving concerns here. Be prepared to walk a distance, no wading.
Looking forward to seeing everyone who can make it!
