Hi
I started at the Covedale entrance and had 14 singing during a 3/4 mile walk on May 6.
Always fun to hear them!
I hope you have a good outing.

Subject: Cerulean Warbler Lower Trail Field Trip
Just a reminder that the Cerulean Warbler Field Trip, originally scheduled for today, May 14, has been rescheduled for tomorrow, May 15. All other details remain the same.
Please consider carpooling and parking close together, as the parking lot area is limited.
7:30 - 9:30 am
Search for Cerulean Warblers on the Lower Trail, Blair County
Trip Leader: Nick Bolgiano
Please join Nick Bolgiano for a leisurely walk along a stretch of the Lower Trail in Blair County. The goal of this trip is to find Cerulean Warblers, in the core of their Lower Trail habitat. See keystonefund.org/success-story/a-perfect-habitat/ for more information on Nick Bolgiano's search for Cerulean Warblers. This stretch of the Lower Trail is also great for Acadian Flycatcher, Yellow-throated Vireo, Warbling Vireo, Wood Thrush, Louisiana Waterthrush, Yellow-throated Warbler, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, and Baltimore Oriole.
Meet at the Mt. Etna trailhead parking lot at 7:30am (www.rttcpa.org/index.shtml). Travel West on Route 22 from the intersection of Route 453 at Water Street. Turn Left on Fox Run Rd at 3.3 mi (just after the westbound turns to 2 lanes, making this easier if traffic) or Left on Etna Furnace Rd at 4.6 mile. Continue Right near the river to reach the Mt. Etna trailhead parking lot. There is a modern outhouse available.
From the Mt. Etna trailhead parking lot, the group will walk South along the Lower Trail for 1-2 miles out and back.
