Does anyone know where in Connecticut I can find a nice grove of white birch trees? I need some birches for a project, but don't know where to look in my own home state. :-)

Thank you for any info you may be able to offer.

You don't start seeing them (along Rt8) until you are north of Thomaston. Sorry I can't be of more help than thatI Huge ice walls off Exit 38 to the right, and a state park to the left for something to do while looking for birches.

Have a nice cluster up here in Warren Ct off Town Hill Rd. I've uploaded some B&W versions to my FlickR account.

Thank you both for your help, and thank you Thomas for the specific spot. I haven't been able to venture up there recently, as I've been shooting mostly in southern CT and Florida. Hoping to get up there this summer, though, while en route to a shoot in Maine.

Thanks again. --Chris
