Audubon Society and Nature Center Trails

These Trails are for the Birds
Audubon Societies and Nature Center Trails

Oh, what am I supposed to say here? Other than there are a bunch of Audubon sanctuaries and protected properties with trails. And since some of Connnecticut’s nature centers also have worthy hiking trails, I’ll throw them on there too.

Now, of course some nature centers are in state parks and some are also parts of other things, but I figure the volume of people seeking these pages out will be so minimal, it won’t matter.

But! But if you ARE here and know of something I’ve missed, please let me know. Thanks.
