Hi All, I took a stroll through Heritage Park in Ankeny this morning and there has definitely been some turnover! Fall migration is definitely upon us, but it doesn't appear as though the breeding season is quite finished.... 1 Cooper's Hawk Eastern Wood-Pewee sitting on a nest 2 Vireos: Warbling & Red-eyed Black-capped Chickadee feeding young at a nest 1 CAROLINA WREN - not only my first for the park, but my first for Polk Co! 2 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers Gray Catbirds feeding young 7 species of warblers: Black-and White, Redstart, Magnolia, Blackburnian, Yellow, Chestnut-sided, & Canada 1 Rose-breasted Grosbeak Danny Akers Ankeny [email protected]
