The Housatonic Valley Association wants to hear from birders

March 31, 2021 — If the Housatonic River north of New Milford is one of your birding destinations, the Housatonic Valley Association wants to know what you think.

The association is looking for ideas for how to make the river area more welcoming, safer, and cleaner for recreation opportunities.

An online listening session is scheduled for birders and photographers on Thursday, April 8, at 6 p.m.

Conservation Projects Manager Lindsay Larson will lead the session. She says these are the basic questions to be discussed:

What is working for how river recreation is set up in this region? What is NOT working? What are some ideas for addressing the things that are not working?). The goal here is really for us to hear from you all, especially your main concerns and any ideas for potential solutions (over the short-term or long-term).

Register here.
