And, a flock of Gray Catbirds--doesn't three qualify as a flock in February?--and a Hermit Thrush! From Easy Road, I saw one Bald Eagle sitting near the nest as I heard a King Rail behind my back. Later, there were 6 Bald Eagles sitting in two adjacent trees along the Belmont Bay shoreline near Deephold Pt. and Charlie Roads.

Worth mentioning is that there is now an entrance fee of $2 for visitors to the refuge.
