No one showed up for the walk this AM due to the rain, but since I had driven all that way - I decided to walk the "route" and see what I could find in this beautiful urban park. Swifts were already soaring overhead, Mockers were scolding, and numerous juvenile and adult Robins were pulling up worms left and right. As I headed down to the pond, I spotted an Eastern Phoebe, House Wren, and the usual pesky Starlings.

A bad picture, but the 4 Moscovy ducklings are much bigger, and actually look like gigantic Mallard ducklings. The best birds of the day were 3 adult and one juvenile Black-crowned Night Herons! |
