Fall Birds at The Rea Farm Group 1 - Saturday, October 15th 2011

Slow starting but nice pockets of warblers here and there, including Blackpoll, Palm and of course Yellow-rumps. Warbler highlight was a very cooperative Orange-crowned Wabler near the railroad tracks in the back. Several Sharp-shinned Hawks, an early morning Cooper's, Osprey and a Red-tailed Hawk. A Merlin showed before and after the walk. Field, Savannah and two White-crowned Sparrows were also
observed..
