Hi All I just received a report of a female PAINTED BUNTING along the Chinquapin Oak Trail in the park. The bird was first located south of the entrance to the cemetery, between the cemetery gate and the bench. The bird was last seen flying north, towards Anders Footpath. Anders Footpath is accessed by way of the southern part of the DeLaurier Trail. When in the DeLaurier parking lot, following the middle trail south, past the weather station to the junction with the main DeLaurier loop - the Anders footpath starts to the south of this junction. Alternatively, you can park at White Pine and cross the road to follow the Chinquapin Oak Trail - take this trail until you reach the bench at a T-junction - turn left (north) and follow the trail - it eventually turns into the Anders footpath. Please ask at the front gate or the Visitor Centre for a map of this part of the park. Good birding!
