Hugh Currie lead our June 19th Bird Walk at Colonel Samuel Smith Park. At this time of year, we expect to see mainly breeding birds. The full foliage can make spotting difficult, but adults may be defending territory, and young fledgelings don’t always have the sense to hide. Here are a few of the birds we saw:

RN-Grebes-Nest

The Red-Necked Grebes using a nesting raft.

RWBB-Male
Loon

Common Loon

Young-RWBB

Juvenile Red-winged Blackbird

N-Rough-winged-Swallows

A family of Rough-winged Swallows was a surprise find.

N-Rough-winged-Swallow
RWBB-perched
RWBB-Calling
RWBB-take-off
Song-Sparrow1

Song Sparrow singing from a treetop

Cedar-Waxwing

Cedar Waxwing

Young-RWBBs

More Juvenile Red-winged Blackbirds
