[Gall, Lawrence]

Hi CTLEPS-L, the latest NOAA forecast continues to call for cloudy/rainy conditions on Saturday, and with somewhat improved conditions Sunday.  Therefore, the West Rock butterfly walk WILL BE ON THE RAIN DATE OF SUNDAY 7 MAY at 10:00 am.  Hopefully, this will work out.  Best, Larry

Saturday May 6, 10 AM (rain date May 7)

West Rock Park, New Haven

Leader: Larry Gall 203-432-9892 <(203)%20432-9892>



Look for early butterflies such as Falcate Orangetip, Brown Elfin, and

Juniper Hairstreak. Most of the walking is relatively easy up an old

roadway but there may be some trail hiking, which is generally flat but

rocky. If a rain date is necessary, it will be posted at 203-432-9892

<(203)%20432-9892>.    Directions: Take Rte 15 (Merritt Pkwy) to

Interchange 59 (Rtes 63/69) exits). Go southeast on Rte 63 toward New

Haven. Make left on Blake St., go quarter mile and make left on Farnam Ave.

At end of Farnam, make left on Wintergreen. Pass cemetery on right, angle

left on Wintergreen, come to stop sign and make right on Springside. Go to

next stop sign; make left back onto Brookside (Wintergreen). Entrance to

park will be on left, parking lot will be on right just before passing

under Merritt Pkwy bridge.  If the lots are closed or full, park on

Carbonella Drive, just beyond the Merritt Pkwy bridge.



The walk is open to the public.
