North Davis Farms is another very productive site. It can be excellent in migration.
Birding the Site: Once you park, walk past the end of the street and cross the channel on the foot bridge. There are a lot of good trees to check, but you shouldn’t miss those along the pond to your right. Also walk west along North Davis Farms Road to check the other pond. You can turn right on Northfield Court and walk to the end. Currently, birders check the trees on the north side of the vacant lot, but access there may change. eBird Sightings
