Tips for Birding

One of the best places to find birds at this park is in the forested portion which goes near Grassy West Pond. Birders should familiarize themselves with the boundaries of this park before accessing the forested walking trails as there are several private parcels nearby of which the boundaries are not posted. The Massachusetts GIS Database has an open space layer that shows the boundaries of this park. In general, to avoid issues with adjacent properties, it is best to view Grassy West Pond further back on the trail closer to the park where there is a vista (which is the best viewing point of the pond) instead of going directly up to the pond. 

About this Location
