Hello fellow nature lovers and Skaneateles Conservation Area users, this blog is for us. Hear something? Write about it. See something? Let us know. Let's share our knowledge and experiences using the properties. On the east side of town the Skaneateles Conservation Areas include the Federal Farm, the Guppy Farm,and the O'Loughlin property which have been connected by a series of trails. On the southwest side of town, the Mabel Reynolds property stands undeveloped at the present but hopefully trails will be developed in the future.

I hope that all users of this blog will help record nature sightings as the years progress which can enhance all visits to these properties.

Guppy Falls

Monday, August 30, 2010


The grasshoppers crossed the walkway on the Bob Sykes Trail before me today. At the far edge are a number of great lobelia's in bloom.

On a more disturbing note, someone felt the need to cut the lock off the chain at the entrance to the Federal Farm and drive in. If someone witnesses vandalism please call the county sheriff, Janet Aaron, the town clerk or notify me. Too many people have put in time to create and maintain these beautiful areas to allow vandalism occur unnoticed.
