SUMMARY:Woodcock Walk
DESCRIPTION:Meet at the parking area (directions below) at 7:00 pm. Bring a flashlight for use on the way out. Wear sturdy shoes for a short downhill walk.\nAmerican Woodcock courtship takes place at dusk. The males can be heard making a nasal “peent” call. A little shuffling dance can sometimes be seen.

SUMMARY:Return of the Swallows at Mountain Lake Park
DESCRIPTION:Event:  Return of the Swallows at Mountain Lake Park (plus many other birds to see)\nWhen:  Saturday May 18th\, 9am to 11am\nWhere:  Mountain Lake Park\, 46 Bowen Road\, Warwick\, NY 10990\nMeet:  In the parking area near the entrance to the park.\nLeader:  Local Warwick birder Rich VanTieghem \n– Bring Binoculars if you have them\, and shoes suitable for wet/muddy conditions\n– We will walk on paved paths and perhaps some grassy areas near “Seymour’s Pond” at MLP.\nOverview:  Mountain Lake Park has long been home to breeding colonies of 3 species of Swallows\, with hundreds of Swallows in residence each Spring and Summer.  We expect to see many mud nests that have been built and occupied by Cliff Swallows (the same bird species made famous at San Juan Capistrano in California).  In addition\, Tree Swallows and Barn Swallows breed at the park.  These birds (plus potential visits from additional Swallow species) typically put on an aerial show over the pond each morning as they seek flying insects to feed to their young.   Over 75 species of birds have been seen or heard at Mountain Lake Park\, so we hope to find many additional birds during this event\, such as Eastern Bluebird\, Wood Duck\, Belted Kingfisher\, Great Blue Heron\, maybe an American Eagle and more.

SUMMARY:Independence Day Celebration to make 6 1/2 Station Sanctuary Independent of Invasive Species!
DESCRIPTION:Feel free to join the ragtag Audubon militia at the sanctuary kiosk (not the Heritage Trail side; the Sanctuary side) which will begin by fighting the oppression of the water chestnut along the shore and in the muddy waters.\n\nPlease bring boots and gloves as we remove this aquatic invasive from the shoreline & water (one if by land; two if by sea). If any one desires to continue the fight by breaking the stems of 20 foot tall grasses or picking up trash from the observation platform area trail up to the road\, that would also be welcome. Fight the foreign oppressors\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n
