I ran out to St. John's this evening to look for the Moorhens. Ben
Fritchman was just leaving as I got there and said he had seen 5 young
birds plus one adult. I found 6 young ones and an adult, so I'm
starting to wonder just how many birds are really out there.
One change to the directions: When you reach the boardwalk, stop and
look across the wetland to the right of the boardwalk for the split tree
with the two wood duck houses. Then look just to the right of that
along the cattails. The birds came right out into the open while I was
there.
Also present were shorebirds including both Yellowlegs, Solitary
Sandpiper, and a Marbled Godwit.
