Hi everyone!
After working all week and reading all of the posts regarding the many =
migrants moving in, the rain wasn't going to stop me today! Despite the =
crummy weather, the birds were out! A walk at River Bend Nature Center =
produced golden-crowned kinglets, fox sparrow, eastern phoebe, hermit =
thrush, swamp sparrow, and many brown creepers. I left River Bend to =
check out Alexander Park, Wells Lake, and wherever else I could find =
things happening. Alexander Park had a single horned grebe. Wells Lake =
produced a sandhill crane and 2 great egrets. In a flooded farm field, I =
found my 1st blue-winged teal of the year, and at Twin Lakes, near a =
patch of open water, there were two belted kingfishers. In all, 67 =
species were seen today, of those, 23 were waterfowl species.=20
Good birding!
