Field Trip: Chickawaukie Pond, Rockland

Join us for a late fall visit to Chickawaukie Pond in Rockland. This pond attracts a good variety of migrating waterfowl including Ruddy Ducks, Ringed-neck Ducks, American Coots, scaup, goldeneye, merganser, and Buffleheads. After freeze up, these species will be gone.

This trip will be led by Jeff Cherry and Gail Presley. We’ll meet at the public boat launch on Route 17 at 8:00 am. Try using 148 Lake View Drive on your GPS.

We may make an additional stop on Meadow Brook, the outfall stream from Chickawaukie, where the fresh water marsh habitat can produce an interesting diversity of birds.
