Spring Walk: Reist Sanctuary

“Especially Birding”

A special birding opportunity in the H.G. Bird Sanctuary, a Hudson-Mohawk Bird Club sanctuary.  Its woods, dunes, and wetlands also include a variety of flowers as well as ferns, mosses, and giant trees.  The trail crosses swampy areas and is often very muddy, so wear boots; we’ll meet at the west end of the Sanctuary, which has better parking.  And bring binoculars!  Directions: From the intersection of Balltown and Consaul, go east past the Hannaford Plaza.  Take the first left onto Oakmont.  Pass all the town houses.  When you’ve passed the last one, parking for the Sanctuary is on the right.  (Just north of 35 Oakmont St., Niskayuna, NY 12309)
