[Solitary Sandpiper, Beanery today. Photo by Karl Lukens.]Karl Lukens et. al. report:
"CMBO Spring Migrants at the Rea Farm walk. Warblers still not back in but should be here soon. Several breeding plumage Yellow-rumped warblers were nice to see. Raptors included Red-tailed and Broad-winged Hawks, several American Kestrels, Ospreys, and Adult and immature Bald Eagles. A Wilson's Snipe and Solitary Sandpiper provided good scope views. The highlight was an American Bittern near the flooded railroad tracks that flushed and flew right over head. - Karl (Kathy, Roger)"
