Anyone who knows me knows that ice cream is my favorite thing (well, maybe after creme brûlée!). And Aubergine guests will attest to the fact that I always send them to Spotted Duck! It’s right up the road, on Route 54. Frozen custard is made with egg yolks and these delightful folks make theirs with duck eggs! And the ducks (as well as geese and other birds) are right there on the property. They make amazing flavors, kids can have fun looking at the animals and they do flights! Heaven! spottedduckflx.com
MONTEZUMA NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Another really interesting destination less than an hour from Aubergine Bed and Breakfast is Montezuma, right off Rtes. 5 and 20 in Seneca Falls. If you love birdwatching, this is the place for you: over 9,000 acres of nesting spots and feeding areas for migratory birds. There are walking trails, or you can take the 3.5 mile Wildlife Drive. There is also a Visitor Center, observations towers and educational programs. For some reason I cannot upload this really cool picture I took of the statue of a bald eagle they have there, but visit their website and you can see what I'm talking about. Better yet, come visit and take a day trip! www.fws.gov
