Meet trip leader Matt Hitchings at 8:00 am at the parking lot. Trailhead coordinates: (29.65987, -82.36934). In this field trip to this under-birded gem close to central Gainesville, we will be on the lookout for departing summer residents and migrating warblers and thrushes.
Loblolly Woods is one of ten parks that makes up the Hogtown Creek Greenway, and birding next to Possum Creek will allow us some good views of birds. The trail includes a boardwalk. Depending on timing, we may cross 8th Avenue to explore Loblolly Woods South after we complete a loop along the creek and down the boardwalk.
Mosquitoes are prevalent, but most of the trail is in the shade, so bring bug spray but sunscreen is not a must.
Difficulty may vary and may be rated at 3. This walk may be two miles and may include muddy parts or offshoots with uneven terrain. The boardwalk is an easier walk and could be a turnaround point
