Winter Draws Down in Hempstead Lake State Park
March 7
Leader: Peter Dorosh
Participant limit: 16
Note: It’s been a long time since our last club visit to Hempstead Lake SP, and the first in late winter. There will be plenty of walking as we explore this site on official trails around the lake.
Focus: Primarily an exploratory walk in a new site for winter passerines residing or migrating through, and the usual waterbirds, sparrows, and raptors.
Registrar: Peter Dorosh, email Prosbird@gmail.com
Registration Period: March 1st-March 5th
Carpool fee: $15.00
Itinerary: An early start to this all day visit will bring us to official trails around the southern ponds and lake as well through woods. Time permitting, we may venture to Jones Beach State Park after lunch. Bring lunch, water, a scope if you have one, and good walking shoes.
