SUMMARY:Field Trip - Peoples State Forest\, Barkhamsted - Paul Mahler and Michele McDermott
DESCRIPTION:Peoples State Forest spans over 3\,000 acres of diverse habitats and features 14 miles of trails\, yet it has been infrequently birded over the years. Join us as we explore various hotspots within the forest. Species we’re likely to encounter include: Blackburnian\, Canada\, Black-throated Blue\, and Black-throated Green Warblers\, Northern Waterthrush\, Ovenbirds\, Red-breasted Nuthatches\, Scarlet Tanagers\, Least and Alder Flycatchers\, Winter Wrens\, and more. Great Horned and Barred Owls\, along with Broad-winged Hawks\, also nest within the forest. \nPlease note: the forest can be quite buggy in summer. Mosquito nets and/or generous use of bug spray are highly recommended. We will drive to several locations and walk approximately 2–3 miles throughout the morning. Terrain will include boardwalks\, rocky access roads\, and forest trails with many stumps and roots — please plan footwear and mobility accordingly. \nMeet at the parking lot for Church Pool Park and then carpool over to the entrance for Peoples State Forest. Church Pool Park is located at: 10 Pleasant Valley Rd\, Barkhamsted\, CT 06063 (41.9133759\, -72.9864183) Most people will likely be taking Rt 44 to either Rt 318 or Rt 181.
