Thirty seven Ottawa Field Naturalist Club (OFNC) members joined me for a guided walk around Britannia Conservation Area (Mud Lake) in Ottawa this morning.
We nearly achieved our target of fifty species. Highlights included: first of the year for many Pied-billed Grebe, Pine Warbler, and Yellow-rumped Warbler. Special treats for those that stayed with the group at the end were; Hermit Thrush and Fox Sparrow. Thanks to all that attended, it was a thoroughly enjoyable outing in super spring weather. http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S29005440 Richard Waters, Ottawa _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
