Birding the Meadows with Pete Dunne - Monday, March 28th, 2016

Some rain and fog made distant viewing difficult, but we still found some birds. Ducks were mainly Mallard, and Gadwall, with several Blue-winged Teal, Green-winged Teal, and Buffleheads in the mix. Swallows overhead were Tree, Barn, Northern Rough-winged, and Purple Martins. Visibility was good enough to see 4 Black Scoters and a Red-throated Loon. Osprey, Bald Eagle, and Sharp-shinned Hawk were also seen. Leaders: Pete Dunne, Chuck Slugg, and Karl Lukens.
