Seasonal notes
- Spring birding. Spring is one of the two seasons the state's birding trail entry singles out here, when breeding wood thrush, hooded warbler, yellow-throated vireo and summer tanager are in the hammock. The month boundaries are our own approximation.(general guidance, not verified)
- Fall migration. The state's birding trail entry calls fall the best window for migrants along the oak edges and swamp, with cuckoos, grosbeaks, orioles and 20-plus warbler species recorded. The month boundaries are our own approximation.(general guidance, not verified)
