There was a Snow Goose at the Big Bluestem pond this afternoon. It was sitting on a very large muskrat lodge not too far from the road.
Also: Along the auto tour route – mixed flock including 15 to 20 E. Bluebirds, 10 – 15 Yellow-rumped Warblers, maybe 5 Palm Warblers, and a couple others we could not see long enough to ID. Blue Hill trail - Many juncos and White-throated Sparrows, 1 Field Sparrow, 1 White-crowned Sparrow, 1 Harris’s Sparrow, a couple Chipping Sparrows, 1 Fox Sparrow, 1 Ruby-crowned Kinglet and a lot of gnats. Not complaining as it was due to the warm weather – spectacular day. But oof – it is dry!
