Our group of eight tallied 49 species. One eaglet was on the nest and one
on branch to
left and below nest and the third one was nowhere to be seen. We also saw one
adult in flight.
Nesting activity continues with tree swallows nesting along river above falls
and a great
crested's cavity nest in picnic grounds.
Thie Sunday walk meets at 8:00 am in the visitor's center courtyard and all are
welcome. --
