[nysbirds-l] Fahnestock State Park, Putnam county

[Larry Trachtenberg]

Hiked the red trail from Rte 301 to Beaver Pond then back to 301 on Blue trail 
with Charlie Roberto and Kyle Bardwell. Did a bit of trail maintenance and got 
some good birds along the way. Highlights were six species of warbler including 
male chestnut sided, black throated blue and prairie, several scarlet tanagers, 
veery, pewees, yellow throated and red eyed vireos, balt. Oriole, E. bluebird 
and towhees galore; 2 water snakes and one large black rat snake. (And lots of 
blueberries mostly high bush.)
