Informations supplémentaires

Warbler Corner is a little section/trail among the trees in the south side of the park that is one of the better places for finding migrants. The big mulberry bush near the amphitheater and butterfly garden also often has various migrants, especially when it has berries in the fall. The creek can also sometimes have Northern Waterthrush or Wood Duck.

Orange Audubon Society hosts bird walks every Saturday in April and October.
