Hi everyone,
I started off the bird walk with around 200 cattle egrets preparing to take
off and start the day. There were 4 Anhinga perched across North Pond and
the Green Kingfishers were flying back and forth. We spent a good amount of
time looking for Olive sparrows which we could hear and four of them. Today
most warblers were spotted at the east side of the canal by the Performance
Pergola. My favorite bird spotted today...a very spotted, Spotted sandpiper
at the canal overlook:) Below is this morning's bird list.
Happy Birding!!
