Birders1

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.

Song-Sparrow1

Cedar-Waxwing

Young-RWBBs
