Above Par Birding at CHC WMA - Sunday, April 30th, 2017

Baltimore Orioles can really shine in the morning light and when four males appear at the top of a sunlit tree, as they did on this morning's walk, it's quite a sight. The selection of warblers was good also, with singing Blackpolls, Northern Parulas, Common Yellowthroats, Pine and Black-throated Blues. Leaders: Kathy Horn, Roger Horn, Shaun Bamford, & Cindy Bamford.
