While July birding at the State Park can be hot, muggy and
buggy, such was not the case today; we had a good variety of birds on a very pleasant
morning. There's a lot of activity at the Purple Martin condos in the parking
lot as adults fly in to feed their yellow-gummed young, shorebirds are starting
to move, and late-nesting Cedar Waxwings are still in the nest-building phase,
with one nest currently under construction on the yellow trail.
