What to wear and bring: water is nice, so are binoculars if you have them, please avoid heavy cotton clothing. A ladder climb into a canoe is involved.
An easy, slow-paced creek trip at low tide. We’ll use a big canoe, and tandem canoes if folks like.
We can head up Dutch Kills and look for heron and egrets. We will head up Newtown Creek to the Turning Basin.
