Description:
Hydes Road Park is a 44-acre athletic field in Glen Arm. Three sides of the park are bordered with reforestation habitat. Beavers recently dammed the creek in the southwest corner of the park, creating a wetland that attracted several species of aquatic birds that were new to the park list. However, this park is best known for its proclivity to attract a wide variety of sparrows. We’ll focus on sparrows and hope to find less common species like Lincoln’s Sparrow, Vesper Sparrow, White-crowned Sparrow, or something even rarer. Muck boots recommended but not essential.
