This is a nice patch of woods that extends into Cayuga Heights, with trails 
going out onto Triphammer (and now a Frisbee golf course).

I've banded crows in there for 25 years, and I've only just now heard it 
referred to as Palmer Woods.  It is off of Jessup Road, bordered by Jessup 
Field, so all I've ever heard before was Jessup Woods.

Dear all,

Palmer Woods refers to the wooded area immediately north and west of A-Lot on 
Cornell's North Campus. In particular, the tennis courts in question are just 
north of Jessup Road near where it intersects with Triphammer.

As for why this area is called Palmer Woods, I cannot say. The area is well 
known to student birders, so it is likely that one of us came up with the name 
many years ago.

Good birding,
