Click on any thumbnail to see a larger view. Some regulars and a couple first-timers gathered in January for a bird walk at the park led by Naturalist Tom Parlapiano. Join him on February 12 for the next walk. Below are some photos from the walk (sorry, not of the birds). Click on any thumbnail to view it larger. It was a cool crisp day, warm when the sun was still out and quickly chilled when the clouds came over. A great, refreshing morning all around to view some beautiful birds and meet new friends. Following the photos is the list of birds spotted. Great Blue Heron Red-shouldered Hawk Cooper's Hawk Turkey Vulture Black-capped Chickadee Tufted Titmouse White-breasted Nuthatch Red-breasted Nuthatch Downy Woodpecker Red-bellied Woodpecker Northern Flicker American Robin Hermit Thrush White-throated Sparrow Dark-eyed Junco American Goldfinch House Finch Northern Cardinal
Mourning Dove Blue Jay American Crow European Starling House Sparrow 23 birds...... about average for a winter's day. |
