Migration Morning Walk

Greetings all,

Despite the relatively sparse number of birds, a lovely morning to be out with our new intern staff and a handful of other birders.  Our group of 13 ambled to the boardwalk — highlights included hummingbirds feeding among the jewelweed and a singing brown creeper.  We will continue our Wednesday morning walks through the end of September (7, 14, 21 and 28); all are welcome.
