Here’s a new companion for the trip: Birdwatching in Vermont by Ted Murin and Bryan Pfeiffer, a complete guide to finding and enjoying birds across the Green Mountain State. It covers more than 120 birdwatching destinations and includes detailed accounts (with graphs) of 296 regularly occurring species. Atypical for a standard birdfinding guide are the book’s chapters on the art of birdwatching (written mostly for beginners) and conservation. Adapted below for Bird Observer is the book’s section on North Central Vermont. The region includes sites for Bicknell’s Thrush. It is copyrighted and reprinted with the permission of the publisher, University Press of New England. Copies of the book can be ordered directly from the publisher by calling 1-800-421-1561. Birdwatching in Vermont by Ted Murin and Bryan Pfeiffer. University Press of New England. 208 pages, 297 graphs, 33 illustrations. ISBN: 1-58465-188-1 Forests, farmland, wetlands, lakes, rivers, and the state’s highest peak offer the birdwatcher in this region a diverse encounter with Vermont. Deciduous and mixed woods dominate the eastern foothills here. But the Green Mountains, on the western edge of this area, offer trails to high-elevation spruce-fir forests and their own avian specialties.

These low numbers were well below normal and the lowest since 2011. The 5-year average from 2012 to 2016 is 109 fires, 317 acres. Debris burning was the most common cause. From December 2016 through February 2017, temperatures were 3° to 7° above normal. A series of snow storms through mid-February blanketed the state in snow with amounts ranging from 12 to 50 inches in the mid and upper elevations and a trace to 8 inches in the Champlain valley. The snowpack took a hit, however, from February 23-26, when record breaking high temperatures were recorded. Temperatures reached the upper 50’s, the low, mid and upper 60’s and even 72° in Burlington. No snow remained in the Champlain valley east to the base of the Green Mountains and a trace to 16 inches remained across the rest of the state except for the highest elevations and Essex county. The snow and cold arrived in March. By March 4, temps plunged into the single digits and low teens breaking lowest maximum high temperature records across the state.
