Thursday Prospect walk April 19th

Leading : Tom Stephenson

Hi Peter,


Another great day in the park. We had over 20 people with some from far-away places including Ireland, Norway, and Manhattan.

Probably the best bird was a Common Loon that flew over. We also had Fish Crow, Common Yellowthroat, Black-and-White Warbler, Warbling and Blue-headed Vireos, Northern Waterthrush, Eastern Kingbird, Chimney Swifts, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher and other relatively new arrivals.

Here's the list.

Best regards,

Tom
