The following is a press release from the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge:

Explore the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge beginning at 1:30 p.m. Oct. 28 with roving naturalist, Neil Foley, to spot the ducks and geese that stop there on their journeys south. You will discover just what waterfowl need to survive and how the refuge gives them what they want.

Meet our Naturalist at the Refuge’s Visitor Center, 3395 U.S. Route 20 East, Seneca Falls, NY 13148, at 1:30 PM on Sunday, October 28. Travel by foot and by caravan in your own cars, following Naturalist Foley to the day’s waterfowl hot spots!

As you marvel at the beauty of the refuge’s autumn scenery, you will learn what good duck habitat is, what these birds eat, and just who is on the refuge this time of year. This program will go on rain or shine. Bring your binoculars if you have them, or borrow a pair of ours! This program has been developed for all ages.
