Dear Birders: As promised Directions to the Dovekie in Long Island NY.
Timber Point Marina River Road Great River, NY 11739 Go over TROGS NECK BRIDGE in New York Slight LEFT at I-695 S (Throgs Neck Bridge) Merge onto I-295 S Take the exit onto CROSS ISLAND PKWY Take exit 25A on the left for SOUTHERN STATE PKWY E toward Eastern Long Island. Merge onto SOUTHERN STATE PKWY 32.3 mi Get off SOUTHERN STATE PKWY at EXIT 45 EAST. Make FIRST RIGHT onto Great River Road. Follow Great River Road all the way to end. Go straight across & into the Golf Club and follow signs all the way back around to WEST MARINA. Fantastic Views & Photographs and well worth going to see. Binos are great! No need for a scope at this location as the little one is so close. Hope this helps. There may be other ways to go but this is the way we went with a few other steps from CT. Good Luck! It is well worth it to go.
