For those folks planning to participate in tomorrows KTOS field trip to Seven Islands, Mossy Creek and Cherokee Dam, please remember to be prepared for the weather. The plan is to walk just far enough at Seven Islands to see the eagle nest (less than a half mile each way on a mostly flat paved road). We should be able to see song, field, and white-throated sparrows. There is a good chance for white-crowned and fox sparrow in that stretch as well. Woodland birds are also possible. At Mossy Creek we will walk a short paved trail to an overlook. Several dabbling duck species are possible along with some sparrows and woodland species. At Cherokee Dam we will scope the lake for waterfowl and check below the dam for gulls and herons. ALL THE PLACES WE WILL VISIT ARE WHEELCHAIR COMPATIBLE!! Hope to see you at the Cracker Barrel on Strawplains Pike at 7:30am.
