Finger Lakes SP

Tips for Birding

Good, accessible warbler and thrush areas, especially in spring. Notably, a Cape May Warbler and Veeries have been seen here. Small numbers of a variety of waterfowl occur in winter. Pines and alders could be very good for crossbills and redpolls in invasion winters, as they were in 1980s-90s.
