Thursday March 2 - Zellwood, meet in Belk's parking lot 7:15am.
This is one of our favorite outings with lot's of species and sometimes
a surprise visitor. If Harold is able to take us to both sides of Zellwood
we will have the option of an AM and PM run. Those wishing to stay on
for the afternoon please car pool accordingly. To keep down the number
of vehicles on this drive please plan to fill all cars at the parking
lot.
