One of the best parts of being the president of the Athol Bird and Nature Club is the opportunity to lead natural history tours to some of my favorite areas. There is nothing more rewarding than sharing my interest and knowledge with a fun group like the folks who joined me on this trip. I learned a lot. I admit to being a complete novice at remembering plant names... If they only flew I might be able to connect... Thanks to all who participated.
