E-Z Birding enjoyed a leisurely stroll along the ponds and through the State Park and sighted a variety of birds. Highlights include a mix of terns such as Common, Forster's, Royal, and Black. Shorebirds were tough due to
the lack of "edges" along the ponds. We had a group of Yellow Warblers, Redstarts, and Baltimore Orioles to round out the usual species.
