Our group of eight enjoyed a beautiful morning and spotted 40 species. We
were pleased to see the lesser scaup again. Common yellowthroats were spotted
along the river and in the lizard tail at the clay pond. This regular
Sunday walk meets in the visitor's center courtyard at 8:00am. All are
welcome.
