!!! seems it only displays well the 2nd time? ugh.

swallows-yellow-sunEvery autumn an estimated one million swallows come together above an island in the CT River as a part of their migration ritual. This growing mass of birds performs undulating dances before suddenly descending as one to roost just after the sun sets.

Join us on a cruise aboard the RiverQuest to view this miraculous display. Commentary about the birds and other wildlife, as well as binoculars (if you don’t have your own), will be provided by CT River Expeditions.

Wine and light refreshments are included. You may bring a picnic supper.

Preregistration and prepayment required. The cost is $40.00 per person, no children under 10. The boat leaves Eagle Landing State Park in Haddam promptly at 5:00 and returns in about three hours. If the trip is canceled because of inclement weather, refunds will be provided. Check our website if weather is questionable. Tickets are non-refundable after September 20. After that date, if we have a waiting list, we will use our best efforts to find a buyer for your ticket(s) if you need to cancel. No-shows on cruise day are not refundable.

We are very sorry. We are booked to capacity. You can email info@lymelandtrust.org to go on the waiting list in case of a cancellation or contact the RiverQuest to see if one of their other cruises has space. The Old Lyme Land Trust is hosting a Swallow Cruise on the RiverQuest on September 27.  For info go to: OLLT Swallow Cruise.

You may also be interested in the Geology Cruise on the RiverQuest sponsored by the Lyme Public Hall on October 26.
