NJ Audubon: Old Coal Trail Birdwalk
Old Coal Trail - Clinton Rd NJ, United StatesJoin Associate Naturalist Dave Oster to bird around Old Coal Trail in West Milford. We’ll walk the Old Coal Trail and probably an additional trail that runs west and north of Bearfort Waters. These trails lead to higher elevations and dense mountain laurel thickets which should be in bloom. With a little patience it’s usually possible to get good views of nesting Black-throated Blue Warbler. This area is also excellent for Hooded Warbler and a variety of nesting thrushes, vireos, warblers etc. Broad-winged Hawk and Yellow-bellied Sapsucker are also possible. Just a beautiful area and very birdy. Some of the trail has loose rock so sturdy footwear is recommended. Please bring your own binoculars, and spotting scope if desired. There will be no equipment available to borrow. Ticket sales end on 6/10/2022 at 4:00 PM. Registration required. Walk-ins will not be permitted to participate. COST: $15 members, $20 nonmembers.
