SUMMARY:Roanoke Sewage Treatment Plant Birding Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join leaders Kent Davis and Linda Corey on March 16 at 9:00 a.m. for a walk around the Sewage Treatment Plant. Entrance to the STP is by special permit and trip participants must all enter at the same time and stay together with our leader. This site is one of the best spots for viewing shorebirds in the Roanoke Valley. The property includes impoundments\, sludge ponds\, mudflats\, riparian habitat and woodlands. Besides shorebirds\, we can expect to see resident hawks and possibly ravens and fish crows. The walking is mostly flat with a short steep trail. Sturdy waterproof boots are recommended as it often is muddy. \nDirections: Meet at the Greenway parking lot off of Bennington Street near the bridge over the Roanoke River; the entrance to the parking area is between the bridge and Brownlee Avenue. Note that Thirteenth Street SE changes names to Bennington Street at the bridge over the Roanoke River. After the group has gathered\, we will caravan or walk the short distance to the STP\, so please arrive a few minutes early.
