Fall Migrants at The Rea Farm - Saturday, October 12, 2019


Short-distance migrants are on the move now and we saw many Brown Thrashers, Blue Jays and Northern Flickers today. Sparrows have started their fall influx into the area, and we had several Savannah, Swamp, Chipping and Song Sparrows, along with a couple of Eastern Towhees.
