Pompy Oxbow

Smarts Mountain from Pompy Oxbow

 

Pompy Oxbow Is south of Route 132 and Kendall Station Road along Route 5 in Norwich.  One can park by the side of the road just north of Town Highway 99.   Cross the RR tracks to this series of planted fields between Route 5 and the Connecticut River.

 

At times the area is filled with Sunflowers.

I have birded here only a few times, but I have seen some nice birds. It is a great spot for sparrows.
