My New Column: Birding Olana
My latest column for The Record is about birding Olana, the amazing estate of Hudson River School artist Frederic Edwin Church.
The site, near Hudson, N.Y., is historic and spectacular, and the birding is excellent. I birded Olana with William Cook, Kathryn Schneider, Marian Sole and another excellent birder from the Alan Devoe Birding Club of Columbia County, N.Y.
The column, with a link to a video about Olana, is here.
A terrific song about Olana, by Marc Cohn, is here.
The town of Hudson is worth a visit as well — great restaurants and shops.
