A very diverse day along the river.
The Bobolinks were in the West end of the large fields you come to if
hiking down stream from Owen Park(near the draft horses and pigs). The
Cape Mays were in the Spruces up in the woods North of that same field...
follow the lumpy Mtn bike trail just to the left of the hay barn up to a
clearing surrounded by Norway Spruce and White Pine.
