Our walk took place today during a nor'easter with 30-mph winds and steady rain or drizzle. In spite of the weather, we had some interesting birds. There were Ospreys, Peregrine Falcons, and Merlins flying and lots of herons including: Great Blue, Tricolored, Great and Snowy Egrets, and Glossy Ibis. There was a large number of Tree Swallows in the air and a number of Northern Flickers. Leaders: Chuck Slugg and Barb Bassett.
