Bird Report, April 27, 2009

The bird sightings are coming in as the weather warms...Ron Kingswood reported Nashville Warbler and Northern Oriole. Gill Crowther also reported a Northern (Baltimore) Oriole. Pat Harwell McLean saw something amazing at her pond again, she saw a Louisiana Heron. Look it up! It is very unusual I think. Mom (Norma Cook) and I were out birding on the weekend and found Brown Thrushers, and a Yellow Warbler at Hawk Cliff. We also went up to the two Eagle Nests near Wallacetown and both had an eagle sitting on the nest. Awesome! Also, we saw two herons on nests on the Bush Line. Great birding day.


Keep those reports coming! Diane Dobson
