[Karl Lukens got this neat shot of the two vultures at the Beanery on Saturday.]Karl Lukens et. al. report:
"CMBO Spring Migrants at the Rea Farm - "The Beanery". Not as "birdy" as yesterday but we did have 7 fly-over Common Loons, a sharp looking male Kestrel, a fly-over Red-headed Woodpecker, 2 FOS Great Crested Flycatchers (heard), 2 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers nest building along the back Rail Road ,where we also had excellent looks at a singing Prothonotary Warbler. Also had singing Northern Waterthrush, a couple of Indigo Bunting, and scope looks at Blue Grosbeak. A singing adult male Orchard Oriole was also a treat. A Black and Turkey Vulture sat side by side providing a good comparison. - Karl (Kathy, Roger, Warren, Patty) "
