LEWISTON -- The Stanton Bird Club of Lewiston/Auburn has announced the fall schedule of Guided Bird Walks. This continues the fifth year for the bird walk series which starts each June and continues to December. The season will begin with a Sept. 7 walk along the old Spring Road in North Auburn, now a walking trail along the shores of Lake Auburn, to look for early fall migrants. This will be followed by a walk focusing on botany at Beaver Park in Lisbon with co-leader Susan Hayward. Each walk is different with the intent of observing a variety of local birds either in different habitats or as different species migrate.
