Beginner Birding at Mary Moore Searight, 2/1/20

Hey All,

Twelve folks {DianeN, JackieD, Jacque, JanetFB, Janne, LisaM, LoisK (+ husband), MaryVE (+ brother and sister-in-law), and Shelia} met at Mary Moore Searight this morning to enjoy a Beginning Bird Walk with Travis Audubon.  Due to a hiccup in Audubon plans, that hike has been rescheduled for March 7^th.  So we did our own birding hike and walk.

Thanks to 12 set of eyes, we saw:

15           Double-crested Cormorants

1             Great Egret

1             Red-shouldered Hawk – heard

3             Carolina Chickadees

4             Black-crested Titmice

1             Ruby-crowned Kinglet

3             Northern Mockingbirds

3             Chipping Sparrows

1             Yellow-rumped Warbler

9             Northern Cardinals

Kudos to each of you for assisting the others to see birds.  And thanks for your patience and willingness to continue on with our own birding and hiking despite the absence of TAS folks.  I do appreciate JanetFB and JackieD for leading the gathering.  And I did enjoy our conversations about nests, moth environments, and scat.

Next time! Jacque
