SUMMARY:Amy's Pond & Woodsmith -- Joint Genesee Land Trust / RBA Trip
DESCRIPTION:This is a field trip to the private property of Amanda Smith-Hatch for spring migrants\, early nesters and waterfowl. Two adjacent easements make up 187 acres that include two large ponds\, mature woodland\, and open fields all within 0.5 mile of Lake Ontario. Past trips have yielded eagles\, bitterns\, herons\, many warblers\, Scarlet Tanagers\, etc. We’ll walk along uneven trails\, so bring a walking stick if needed\, and prepare for a medium-long hike in an outstanding sanctuary open only by special arrangement — many thanks to Genesee Land Trust! No restrooms available. \nMeet at 7:00 a.m. in the Webster Park east parking lot (with Port-a-john and playground) on Holt Road\, just before Lake Road\, or at Amy’s Pond at 7:30 a.m.\, 484 Lake Road\, Ontario\, NY\, about 1 mi east of County Line Road. Turn down the long driveway (on the south side of Lake Road). You will be guided where to park. \nLeaders: Sheryl Gracewski and Tom Nash 585-261-6975 and co-leader Kevin Farrell 585-748-6919 \n  \nRBA Field Trip Guidelines \nAll field trips go rain/snow or shine unless there is a travel advisory issued.
