Litchfield Hills Audubon Society: Swallow Spectacle on the Connecticut River
September 22, 2023 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$45![](https://b2498154.smushcdn.com/2498154/wp-content/uploads/DSC9933-3.jpg?lossy=2&strip=0&webp=1)
In the fall, American Tree Swallows preparing to migrate gather by the thousands to swirl in balletic murmurations as dusk falls. See this spectacle by joining us for a sail on the Onrust sailboat. The Onrust is a re-creation of the vessel Dutch explorer Adriaen Block built in 1614.
The boat departs from the dock at the Connecticut River Museum at 5:30 but please arrive at least 30 minutes before. Directions: Put the Griswold Inn in your GPS; when you get to Essex, drive past the inn to the dead end where the museum is located. Cost: $45 per person.
To reserve your space, call 860-767-8269 or go to ctriverquest.com.
