Cox Hall Creek WMA - Sunday, September 18th, 2016

The birds fooled us today. The parking lot was so quiet we thought it was going to be a slow birding day. NOT! As soon as we got down the path a ways, into the open area, it was clear that birds were everywhere. Among the most commonly seen and heard were Red-breasted Nuthatches which were feeding on trunks and flying between trees in groups of two and three. With six species of warblers, Bobolinks overhead, perched Blue Grosbeak and Indigo Buntings and a seasonally appropriate smattering of other species, it was a very birdy morning. Leaders: Kathy Horn, Roger Horn, Janet Crawford, Shaun Bamford, Cindy Bamford, Deb Payson, and Joe Demko.
