Higbee Beach Bird Walk - Friday, May 9th, 2014

A foggy start to the Higbee Beach walk meant we had something of a slow start, but singing Field Sparrows and Yellow-breasted Chat entertained us until the weather improved. A fly-over Yellow-headed Blackbird was an all-too-brief highlight, but warblers were fun too, with nice views of Black-and-white and Blackpoll Warblers, and Northern Parulas. Leaders: Mike Crewe, Chris Marks, Kathy Horn, Steve Weis, and Warren Cairo.
