I forgot to mention that we had our weekly Tuesday Bird Walk this morning. The highlights being the singing TROPICAL PARULA in the Forest Trail and a VERDIN on the main grounds. The Green and Ringed Kingfishers were not seen during our walk, but other visitors reported seeing them at the North Pond. Bird Walks happen every Tuesday morning starting at 8:30am.
