Birding the Meadows with Pete Dunne - Monday, September 14th, 2015

It was cool and breezy with numerous raptors including several dozen American Kestrels, several Merlin, Cooper's Hawk, Bald Eagle, and both vultures. We also had many warblers in the shrubs with the predominant one being Common Yellowthroat. Leaders: Pete Dunne, Chuck Slugg, Karl Lukens, Steve Weis, Janet Crawford, Pat Perkins, Carrie Bell, and Marc & Lynne Breslow.
