Yes Comments: this is the weekly Sherman School Nature Explorers kids outing led by UW Madison grad students assisted by Madison Audubon bird mentors. Only a short walk in an adjacent neighborhood this first day of Spring due to unusual cold and wind chill, kids then enjoyed indoor bird and nature activity tables and hands-on observation of some amazing educational specimens from UW and Audubon collections such as a super-lightweight hollow goose shank. Warner Park Spring arrivals include recent sightings of Redwing Blackbirds, Robins and Sandhill Cranes and a Pileated continues to frequent Warner Woods. Todays walk netted these birds -   2   American Crow   1   Black-capped Chickadee   1   American Robin   2   Northern Cardinal  2   House Finch #################### You received this email because you are subscribed to the Wisconsin Birding Network (Wisbirdn).
