Concord Park, Knox Co.

hot and sunny

Eleven birders met for a KTOS outing this morning at the Cove at
Concord Park. The highlight of the day was three Brown-headed
Nuthatches among the pine trees. We also saw a female Ruby-throated
Hummingbird feeding on pine needles, and we had great looks at an
Osprey and a few Eastern Kingbirds. Juvenile European Starlings filled
a wild cherry tree and darted in and out of nest holes. We had
flyovers from a Double-crested Cormorant and a Green Heron.
