Howdy All!
What a great morning to go birding! I didn't get a lot of time to get in much 
birding this morning at the park as problems kept popping up all over. 
Highlights of the trip around the park were, the Black-and-White Warblers and 
Broad-winged Hawks have returned. So it is starting to look good for other 
migrants to show up. The best places for activity late this morning were around 
the Beaver pond and the firebreaks near the Southside Day-use turn off. If you 
don't know where those places are in the park, then you will just have to join 
us on an upcoming bird tour.

The next bird tour? Saturday, March 28th at 8:15 am. We will meet at the park 
headquarters (where you check in) and bird a little there and then caravan into 
the park to the birdier places. Come on out and join us!
