Sunset Birding at Stone Harbor Point - Tuesday, September 17th, 2013

The walk was held on a beautiful clear crisp evening seeming more like fall than late summer at 62 degrees and with a fresh breeze. The highlight this evening was the Black-crowned Night Herons in their roost and flying out at dusk to feed. Leaders: Gail Dwyer, Shaun Bamford, Jesse Amesbury and Chris Marks.
