Above Par Birding at Cox Hall Creek WMA - Sunday, October 7, 2018

While the Bald Eagle chasing the Osprey provided the high drama on this morning's walk, it was the cedar full of Pine Warblers that was perhaps most engaging. Six Pine Warblers in various plumages, from bright adult male to drab young female, provided a great chance to study and enjoy them as they fed.
