 Eddy St. habitat (near Swift Run pond/marsh and Mary Beth Doyle Park)

To be noted, there is a faint trail that connects Mary Beth Doyle Park 
to habitat north and west of Swift Run pond.  This is one of my favorite 
places to bird in the spring (I do the breeding bird survey for Dea there).  
This is quite a sensitive area, with very faint trails in tall grasses, so 
birders should be very cautious during the breeding season. A drawback 
to birding this area is the noise from I-94.

There is access to this nice habitat from Eddy St.  [See map.)  Take 
Platt to Verle (north of Swift Run pond) to Eddy.

If you walk west on the trail from the Eddy St. habitat all the way 
to its end, you will come out onto an asphalt path near a pedestrian 
walkway over Stone School Rd.  This location is a short distance 
southeast of the wetland pond in Mary Beth Doyle Park.  To get to the 
wetland pond take the middle path of three options.  [Bruce: 1-26-2010]
