NEW! Eventbrite pre-registration for field trips has ended and is no longer available.
This is a great opportunity to explore an upland region of northeastern Wyoming County including New Compehner Farm (6340 LaGrange Road Wyoming, NY 14591). We will look for migrating and resident warblers, a variety of native sparrows, hopefully returning cliff swallows, both oriole species and open country birds, in a nice mixture of open fields and wooded habitats and bird friendly plantings. We will focus on locating several nesting species. This trip has a little of everything on a beautiful farm. Easy walking, but will cover a mile or two; wear sturdy shoes.
The trip will last until noon. Use a restroom en route, if possible, otherwise a bathroom is available at the home of the leader.
Meet at 7:30 a.m. at 6340 LaGrange Road, Wyoming, NY 14591.
Leaders: Hans Kunze 585-813-2676 and Rick Stevens 585-689-1882
