Sights and Sounds At
Sapsucker Woods
The Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology is well known as a source of information for everything about birds, but it’s also a great place to go birding. Now, thanks to a $25,000 grant from the Wild Birds Unlimited Pathways To Nature Conservation Fund, visitors to this legendary Lab will know just where to go to see the best birds.
Start your exploration of the 220 acre Sapsucker Woods at the Information Kiosk. The map here illustrates more than four miles of trails that stretch through woods, wetlands, and along the edges of Sapsucker Woods Pond. It is here that you may check the bird list for the latest sightings, and you may also add your own observations.
Don’t miss the chance to visit the Lab’s new building, where you can learn about the many scientific and education activities that take place there.
