Harriers and larkspurs and owls, oh my!

Now that the trees stand naked in the breeze, there’s a lot more to see of our feathered friends. Birders Tom Crepet and Jane Vecchione will lead a bird walk from 1:30 p.m. to dusk today at the Blue Chip Farm and former Galeville Airport. The walks begins at the entrance to the Shawangunk Grasslands on Hoagerburgh Road in Gardiner. There’ll be a carpool to Blue Chip to look for larkspurs, larks and red-headed woodpeckers, then a trip to the grasslands in search of winter raptors.
