Four Ponds Conservation Area abuts Pocasset Town Forest.  It consists of
pitch pine-oak forest with wetland areas throughout.  We will walk the
trails of this hidden gem in search of lingering passerines and waterfowl.
Please meet at the parking lot at Aubuchon Hardware on Barlow’s Landing
Road, as the parking lot at Four Ponds is quite small.
