Come out and see how the birds are using the habitat of the sanctuary to survive the cold winter.  People of all ages are welcome.  Meet at 9 a.m. at the entry gate to the sanctuary at 13030 Old Annapolis Road (just east of Detrick Road) in Mt. Airy.

No rest room facilities are available, and the walk will be cancelled in the event of inclement weather.

For more information contact Bob Schaefer at 301-831-5660.

On behalf of all the critters, insects, birds, and plants that live on or near our Audrey Carroll or Fred Archibald Nature Sanctuaries in eastern Frederick County Maryland, I want to THANK all of YOU who helped in any way to maintain, improve and protect these beautiful properties.

 

Help comes in many ways:

* Day-to-day helpers that ease the load

* Bluebird Trail, Purple Martin and other Monitors

* Fundraising thru our October and January Birdseed Sales, our Spring Plant Sale, Spring Birdathon, and other generous Donations and Memorial contributions

* Many Scout projects that have included, most recently, Holly Tree Groves, a Monarch Butterfly Way-Station, a Bat Colony Box, and a Chickadee Tube Trail

 

Hope that 2011 will continue to provide opportunities for ALL to help, in some way, with the wonderful legacy that Audrey Carroll and Fred Archibald have left us!

 

Bill Becraft, Audubon Sanctuary Manager
