Several species of warblers nest in the area, including Yellow warbler, Chestnut-sided Warbler, Nashville Warbler, Warbling Vireo, and White-eyed Vireo.

The Robert Frost Trail commemorates Robert Frost’s poetry; several of his poems are mounted along the trail in the woods and fields. Blueberries and huckleberries grow in an old field at the far end of the trail. The trail is an easy walk, and the first 0.3 miles across a beaver pond boardwalk out to the South Branch of the Middlebury River is accessible and suitable for wheelchairs. The Forest Service maintains all of the old fields along this trail with prescribed fire to preserve the scenic, open appearance of the area.
