Cox Hall Creek WMA - Sunday, April 22nd, 2012

The overnight rain and impending storm had most birds hunkered down during this morning's Cox Hall Creek WMA walk. Still visible and calling were many Chipping Sparrows, Red-bellied Woodpeckers and Tufted Titmice that reside there. Field, Swamp, White-throated and Song Sparrows were vocalizing, and Blue-gray Gnatcatchers and Yellow-rumped Warblers were frequently seen and heard. Leaders:  Kathy & Roger Horn, Janet Crawford, Cindy & Shaun Bamford, Mary Jane & Chuck Slugg
