KUEBLER LANGFORD PARK, Ann Arbor -- 8:30-10:30am, Sept. 7

24 species total, including five warblers--see list below

This is a birdy-looking place.  I had been there on two
afternoons at 2:00 and 5:00pm and, not surprisingly, had not
found many birds.  I went at 8:30 this morning hoping for better
and was not disappointed.  It wasn't exactly jumping, but it
wasn't bad.  It's worth checking out again.  I will, and if
anyone else birds there, please post a brief report.  (Has any
other birder *ever* been there?  I've never heard it mentioned.)

Directions to Kuebler Langford Park follow the list below.

of Kuebler Langford Park.

Kuebler Langford Park is contiguous to Bird Hills Park.  (One of 
the Bird Hills Park trails ends at the west entrance to Kuebler 
Langford Park.)  There are entrances at the east and west ends of 
the park.  The west entrance is down Beechwood St., which is off 
Sunset which is off Newport at Wines and Forsyth schools.  (You 
can also take Main St. to Summit west to Spring north to Sunset 
and go west to Beechwood.)  The east entrance is on Huron River 
Drive near where M-14 and Huron River Drive meet N. Main.  There 
is no parking at the east entrance except at the nearby Hilltop(?) 
Hillside(?) girl scout camp.  (It's possible that the gate is 
normally locked; I don't know.)  The one block of Beechwood 
across from the west entrance should be birded as well.  I 
recommend the west entrance.
