Linnaean Society of New York

New Jersey Meadowlands at DeKorte Park
Saturday, February 26, 2022
Leader: Rick Wright
Description: Crown jewel of the Hackensack, DeKorte Park in late winter is a prime spot for waterfowl, gulls, and raptors. The tidal impoundments often shelter good numbers of Canvasbacks and Northern Pintails, and brushy edges can produce American Tree Sparrows or red Fox Sparrows along with the other common passerines of northern New Jersey. At dusk, the northern harriers patrolling the closed landfills are sometimes joined by a Rough-legged Hawk, Short-eared Owl, Barn Owl, or even—depending on the year—a Snowy Owl.
Registration: Vicki Seabrook - seabrookv.v@gmail.com
