Sixteen members of the BBC and SSBCs joined me for a morning walk at Freetown State Forest in Freetown and Fall River. We found our target birds -- worm-eating warblers (2) and hooded warblers (3). A brief side trip to Blossom Rd, FR in the Watuppa watershed added 2 Acadian flycatchers. The unimproved condition of some roads aborted the planned route.

The South Shore Bird Club (SSBC) was founded in 1946 and the first members set out to explore the birds and birding habitats of the South Shore of Massachusetts. We concentrate on field trips for both members and non members. Most trips involve car-pooling with occasional canoe trips or beach hikes. Non-members are always welcome.
