It was a beautiful spring day for our first E-Z Birding walk of the season. Our group enjoyed multiple views of breeding-plumage Yellow-rumped Warblers along with a single Northern Parula, elusive Pine Warblers, two Palm Warblers and we heard (but did not see) many singing Common Yellowthroats throughout our walk. Other highlights included a few remaining pairs of Blue-winged and Green-winged Teal, a close look at a Snowy Egret, and close encounters with a Box Turtle, a Common Water Snake, and an Eastern Rat Snake sunning themselves. Leaders: Catherine Busch, Chris Marks, and Lynne & Marc Breslow.
