Following is the count from Sunday's weekly bird walk at Great Falls National
Park, which identified 17 species and included 4 participants. The rain was so
steady (and loud) that the group dispensed with the up-river portion of the
walk in favor of hot coffee. Nevertheless, there was one special highlight - a
Yellow-throated Vireo, on an otherwise dreary day.
This walk meets at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday mornings, rain or shine, in front of the
snack bar/concession stand of the Great Falls National Park Visitors' center;
it does not take place, though, during electrical storms, heavy snows, or when
the trails are icy. All those with an interest in the natural world - beginning
and experienced birders alike - please join us.
