Fall Migrants at the Rea Farm - Saturday, November 24th, 2012

Cold and windy weather probably kept the birds "honkered in", but we managed to find a few sparrows, Yellow-rumped Warblers, about 20 Eastern Bluebirds, and a field with up to 50 American Pipits. Only one Red-tailed Hawk with the numerous Black and Turkey Vultures. This was the last Rea Farm walk of 2012. The Saturday walk moves to Cape May Point in December. Leaders: Karl Lukens, Kathy & Roger Horn, and Catherine Busch.
