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.

The spice bush is just starting to bloom today. This is the food of the little caterpillar we saw on the trail last fall. I saw a king fisher today flying along the little creek.
