Balsley Road

Balsley Road stretches 3.8 miles between Sangers Lane and Hermitage Road, passing through a lot of agricultural fields and pastures and interspersed trees and forest, among scattered homes. Thus, one can find a variety of species including Wild Turkey, Yellow-billed Cuckoo, raptors, woodpeckers, Eastern Kingbird, swallows, wrens, finches, and sparrows. There are a few small ponds that might hold herons or sandpipers. Traffic on this paved road is light, however it can be fast and thus you must be sure to pull safely off the road if you need to stop.
