We had a nice turnout for the Dyke Marsh birdwalk Sunday morning, the 29th of
Feb.
The air was a bit cool, but the sun was out with no wind.
The river was not as interesting as it could be, with a continued lack of
ducks, no eagles, cormorants and no Feb. Osprey. Best bird of the day was a
Brown
Thrasher spotted by Connie Campanella along Haul Rd. as it scooted into the
underbrush. Minutes later, it popped up and started vocalizing and we were able
to get brief looks. Here's the list...Rich Rieger:
