GREAT VLY FULL MOON PADDLE
July 27, 2018 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Meet trip leader Peter Schoenberger (pdsis@yahoo.com) at Amy and Peter’s property on West Camp Road. In the late summer and into early fall this location can be very attractive to migrant shorebirds and even terns. The Vly is always a good spot to visit for breeding species loyal to marsh habitat like Gruiformes and bitterns and a quiet paddle should allow for close inspection of some of these target species. To reach the parking area from US 9W north of Saugerties, turn west on West Camp Road and continue for about a mile.
