I went birding in Lake Park today after the morning rains stopped. Beautiful
weather after a rather gray bout of rainy weather. Ran into a friendly birder
from Washington State and she and I birded together for a bit.
A few highlights:
* Caught a brief glimpse of a Wild Turkey hen after the Washington birder and I
parted ways near the Warming House. The turkey was in the same area as my other
turkey sightings. Locust Street Ravine, general vicinity of the iron bridge.
* Saw a Red-headed Woodpecker at the suet feeder by the Wolcott statue. It was
there when I first came to the park, and there again when I left.
* Saw/heard a Killdeer pass overhead. First one I've seen in awhile.
* Looks like lawn bowling season is underway at Lake Park. :-) See:
