Just a remider that the next opportunity to bird STA-5 (Stormwater Treatment Area) in Hendry County, south of Clewiston, will be Saturday, August 26th. STA-5 is not normally open to birders but due to efforts of the recently formed Hendry-Glades Audubon Society, in cooperation with the South Florida Water Management District, birders can bird there during one day a month, and August 26 is this month's open date. We will meet at the main gate at STA-5 at 8:30AM or you can carpool with Margaret England from the LaBelle McDonald's at 7:00AM or the Clewiston McDonald's at 7:45AM. We will be allowed to drive around the northeast impoundment at STA-5 and birders can stop and get out and bird or do photography at any point along the impoundment. With fall migration, especially for shorebirds, underway, we are hoping to add some migrants and possibly new species to the ever-growing bird checklist for STA-5. To sign-up for the STA-5 trip, contact Margaret England at sta5birding@earthlink.net with your name and contact information including an emergency cell number and the number in your party. You may also leave a message at (863) 674-0695 or (863) 517-0202. Tours are subject to cancellation in case of inclement weather. Directions are available at: http://www.orgsites.com/fl/hgaudubon/
