Allegany State Park
 |
Habitat: This state park has the largest acreage of
park land in
Western New York. Much of this Park is made up of hardwood forest but also
includes some stands of coniferous trees along with an assortment of small
ponds, streams and a couple of large lakes. Trails: Very well kept trails and also a network of paved
roads. Be aware that there are a lot of camping sites so Allegany is very busy
in the summer; be prepared for some traffic. |

Birds: A wide variety of
warblers, also Bald Eagles, Osprey, Herons, Common
Merganser, and the Red-shouldered and Broad-winged Hawks
have been sighted. |
