Birding Cape May Point - Saturday, March 3rd, 2012

The number of ducks is down but there was still a nice variety at Lily Lake and Lighthouse Pond including a good number of Ring-necked Ducks and 2 drake Blue-winged Teal. The Eurasian Collared-Doves were calling and 2 seemed to be hanging together.....maybe? Red-bellied and Downy Woodpeckers as well as a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker and several Northern Flickers were seen near Coral and Cambridge Avenues. Leaders: Karl Lukens, Kathy Horn, Roger Horn, Warren Cairo, Steve Weis, and Catherine Busch.
