According to a booklet about Cornell Natural Areas, the woods between Triphammer and Pleasant Grove Roads north of A-lot and Jessup Fields is called PALMER WOODS. This is the first time I've had occasion to use the name, so I can hardly blame anyone else for not knowing. Anyway I'm glad people are going there and finding birds. I mostly drive past and wonder what's there. It looks neat.

Hi all,
Ben Barkley, Brenden Fogarty, Brian Magnier, and I had an excellent
morning of birding around campus today (primarily in the woods behind
Jessup Field and the A Lot, just north of main campus). In addition to
18+ species of warblers, there were a plethora of White-crowned
Sparrows and other migrants. 65 or 70 species in total!
Our warbler list included:
Ovenbird
Louisiana Waterthrush
Blue-winged Warbler
Black-and-white Warbler
Nashville Warbler
Common Yellowthroat
American Redstart
Cape May Warbler - at least two in the larches by the field above the A Lot
Northern Parula
Magnolia Warbler
Blackburnian Warbler
Yellow Warbler
Blackpoll Warbler
Black-throated Blue Warbler
Pine Warbler
Yellow-rumped Warbler
Black-throated Green Warbler
Wilson's Warbler - heard singing
Also Chestnut-sided and Tennessee Warblers, seen by Graham Montgomery
Graham also had several Scarlet Tanagers.
Additionally, there was a Wood Thrush singing in the same area yesterday.
Good birding!
