Hi everyone! I will be leading a field trip along Shindagin Hollow Rd., through Shindagin Hollow State Forest, on Saturday June 3 for the Cayuga Bird Club (but open to all!). We will meet at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology parking lot to carpool at 7 am (I know, it's early.....) and probably be done by 11. We will first walk about a mile, then get into our cars to drive with many stops for the remainder of the trip.
I just did a scouting trip (my ebird list is below) and it reminded me of a couple of things: 1) It is COLD in the morning, so dress appropriately and 2) We will mostly HEAR lots of birds, and if we are lucky, see a few. It is a good opportunity to work on birding by ear! See you there!
