It was a beautiful morning for a bird walk! On the beach we had Royal Terns and a variety of gulls. Tree Swallows are still gathering with some sitting on the beach and some wheeling over the ponds. As we walked through the woods we could tell that there had been a definite movement of birds last night. We saw Orchard Orioles; Blue-gray Gnatcatchers; a Black-and-white Warbler; a number of Eastern Kingbirds; a group of American Redstarts; and Yellow Warblers. Leaders: Chuck Slugg and Cindy Bamford.
