Trails & parks
Merrill Lake Sanctuary
Springs (East Hampton), NY
A short Nature Conservancy trail through old pastures to a salt meadow on Accabonac Harbor, with ospreys calling overhead all spring. This is the landscape Pollock & de Kooning were painting.
LOCAL TIP
Wear boots after rain; some marsh sections close May through July for osprey nesting.
