A Visit to Lake Umbagog with Bob Quinn with the Lakes Region Chapter

This event has passed.

November 20 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

In far northeastern NH lies the richest wildlife area in all of the Granite State- Lake Umbagog. William Brewster, the paragon of 19th century field ornithologists described it as “…like many a precious stone, has beauty and charm due to the effectiveness of its perfect setting ….”

The Umbagog region is still one of the wildest, most bird-rich, areas in northern New England. In this slide show Bob Quinn will share the dramatic scenery of this remote area as well as talk about some of the fascinating changes in Umbagog’s bird life over the last 140 years. The focus of the program will be on the Lake Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge and it’s efforts to protect this dazzling northern lake and the surrounding forests. Bob will also share his visit to Umbagog during the 2024 solar eclipse.

This program is perfect for the wildlife enthusiast as well as those wanting to explore a little known corner of New England.
