I thought people weren’t allowed to walk down to the marsh except when we have
shorebird walks. There are 4 men walking down there. Am I wrong on people
going down there?

Does anyone know about the status of K-M marsh? I was there
yesterday and it doesn't like any decent shorebird habitat has emerged.
It looks like the water levels are too high. I know the Finger Lakes region
has seen over 200% of normal rainfall in the last few weeks. Is this
just mother nature or
Looks good for shorebirds. Lots of mudflat emerging. Wet pattern will help
as we enter the warmest time of year. Did a quick look. Did not see any
shorebirds other than killdeer. However shimmer this time of day bad. If
wildlife drive has shorebirds this place should too. Found another dozen
or
Took my first trip ever to Knox-Marcellus Marsh today. It definitely won't be
my last. We also stopped at the Mucklands where we saw thousands of snow geese
along with a few tundra swans. Below is the list for the marsh.

Went to K-M marsh this morning on Towpath Road (its really bad by the way).
I got there around 830 am and parked close to the dike and almost
immediately I got on the 2 HUDSONIAN GODWITS found by Dave Wheeler the
night before. I was soon joined by fellow birders Bob McGuire and Dave
Nutter and
Since I was last at K-M Marsh on the 18th, the numbers and diversity of
shorebirds has increased. However, after reading Dave Nutter's email its
all relative. Birds that have increased markedly since the 18th are both
LEAST and SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPERS. There were a few large flocks and even a
one
Got here around 130 pm and as expected viewing conditions are brutal. First
southbound shorebirds present. or left over spring migrants? Had 5 GREATER
YELLOWLEGS, 2 PECTORAL SANSPIPERS. The birds are in and out of the weeds by
the water's edge close to where a few weeks go there were many peeps,
Finally got a chance to view K-M Marsh from East Rd in the evening. I was there
from about 5 pm to 715 pm.
The weather was perfect, light breeze, no bugs, and comfortable temperatures.
There was no appreciable heat shimmer and the lighting was great. My focus was
on shorebirds.

How do I get to this marsh? Is it just south of the towpath road as
you drive along it or is it at a mor specific location? Going
tomorrow, thanks in advance

It is the marsh, mudflats, and open water north of Towpath Road (before the
first dike) and east of East Road. Shorebirds are best seen from East Road
in the late afternoon and evening, marsh birds best seen along Towpath.

I had a fun bit of the afternoon on the towpath at MNWR until I was
rained-out—the birds were great, but the rain was so necessary!
