[nysbirds-l] Heckscher State Park

A quick walk through the interior (on the service road behind the maintenance yard) of Heckscher State Park from ~1-215 was similar to Luke Ormand's experience at Carman's River in that it produced little of note. Lone Yellow Warbler, Blue Gray Gnatcatcher and Ovenbird highlighted the walk.
