Cove Island Park at end of Weed Avenue, on the Long Island Sound. Area is good for both local birds and migrants. A drive along the river to Peartree Point and the Long Island Sound can be good too. Good for waterfowl, shorebirds, gulls and Ospreys. Proceed to end of the road to the private housing entrance.
Beach driveway is on the right.
Note that entrance to the beach is limited to Darien residents from Memorial Day through Labor Day. The woods behind the tennis and paddle courts can be very productive in the spring and fall for woodland migrants. This area is especially good for thrushes, vireos, warblers, orioles and tanagers. Enter the cemetary from one of its on either the Post Road or Hecker Avenue. Drive the roads looking for migrants and nesting species in the trees and plantings.
