Join DOAS on Tuesday, May 19 from 8:00-10:00am at Hartwick College’s Pine Lake Environmental campus in Davenport Center. Suzanne Gaynor and Jane Bachman will lead the walk. We can expect warblers, ducks, other songbirds, and possible Bald Eagles who nest nearby.

Meet at 8am in the Pine Lake parking lot at 1894 Charlotte Creek Rd, Oneonta, NY.

This will be a 1 1/2-mile walk past a variety of habitats including Pine Lake, Charlotte Creek, woods, a swamp, and open field. There is one moderate climb and much of the walking is on uneven woodland trails. Sturdy footwear is recommended. A restroom is available at the start and end of the walk.

Contact Suzanne Gaynor at 607-435-2939 for more information. No pre-registration required.

Sunday, May 24 at 8:00 a.m. Charlie Scheim and Sandy Bright will lead a bird walk on the Andes Rail Trail in Andes, NY. This walk has been scheduled at the request of the Andes Garden Club, but all are welcome to attend.

We will meet at the Andes Rail Trail parking lot at 266 Depot St in Andes. The walk will be roughly a mile to a mile and a half and last 1 1/2 to 2 hours. We will follow the Rail Trail, which is firm dirt, but not paved, along generally level terrain, no steep uphills. (We’ll turn around before the trail starts heading uphill very much.) There is a decent amount of parking at the beginning of the rail trail, but no restrooms.
