It was a beautiful morning for our monthly bird walk at New Quarter Park! We were joined by members of the Middle Peninsula Bird Club. We saw 43 species of birds! Many of our summer residents have arrived. We saw or heard several Yellow-Throated Warblers, Blue-Gray Gnatcatchers, Northern Parulas, ovenbirds and a Summer Tanager. The ospreys are nesting on the platform by the Queens Lake Marina and one was sitting on the nest. We also got a great look at a very cooperative Great Egret! We were done with the walk before the storms moved in. It was great having the Middle Peninsula Bird club join usI Hope to join them someday for a bird walk on the Middle peninsula.
