BBC Thursday walk
Leader: Tom Stephenson
05 May 2011
Hi Peter,
It turned out my meeting was delayed until the afternoon so I was able to attend part of the walk today. Ed co-led and then took over after I left and he may have sent you a list.
We had about 20 people for the walk, and it was definitely birdy in most of the park.
Here's what we saw when I was there plus a WOEWA and WHCRSP Ed had on his way to meeting place. Highlights, maybe Cape May Warbler at MD Mon, Indigo Bunting on path just L from monument. 17 species of warblers including early Blackpoll.
See you in the park.
Best regards,
Tom
