The Connecticut Audubon at
Fairfield, located on 2325 Burr Street in Fairfield is offering an evening hike
on Feb. 7 from 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. The Audubon asks participants to arrive 15
minutes prior to check-in. Wear layers and appropriate footwear. A small light
and water are recommended.
This very special evening hike
will take you on an adventure in the brisk winter night air so remember to
bundle up! This program offers a rare opportunity to experience the Larsen Sanctuary
during a winter night of beauty. As you walk through the woods by moonlight, your
knowledgeable
guide will discuss how migrating birds navigate in the night
sky. You will
also study
the constellations and learn fascinating facts about star related topics. This winter hike includes a stop along the
way to take in the beautiful views and enjoy hot cocoa under the stars.
In
the event that there is snow, snowshoeing is a welcome mode of
transportation! Bring your own pair or
rent a pair from EMS in Fairfield at a discounted rate for this program. Be
sure to mention this program to obtain your rental discount.
