The Connecticut River has become very well known for its bird-watching opportunities. During the fall ... we have migratory birds coming down from Canada heading south. ... We have an annual fall bird walk at one of our state parks right along Long Island Sound. |
Vineyards ... are bearing their fruit ... so there are some wonderful wine tours. |
When people visit Connecticut in the fall, they tend to stay a few days -- three or four days on average -- and you really get out to experience what there is to see and do. |
You can actually get on boats and see the foliage along the shore [with] narrated tours. [The Connecticut River] is really a very unspoiled waterway with beautiful scenic vistas as well as small, quaint towns. |
