Ed and All,
Hard Bargain Farm isn't open to the public but if you go to Piscataway
Park you can access much of the property (riverfront, hay fields, swamp,
marsh) around the private part of the farm. I've set HBF as a HotSpot
with EBird and somebody else set Piscataway Park as one also so you
could look up the location that way if you like. You could come visit
the farm on May 3 during our annual Spring Farm Fest, we'll be open to
the public, have music, food, hay rides, etc. but you could just wander
around bird-watching instead. :) Directions and info are on
hardbargainfarm.org.
Another sign of spring this weekend was the return of the Northern
Parula! I thought I heard one friday, definately heard them on saturday
and they are all over the place this morning.
Good birding,
Chris Ordiway @ Hard Bargain Farm
