Highlights of a delightful evening stroll at Hempstead Lake include a singing Rusty Blackbird, a pair of Wood Ducks who flushed from the swampy area and were later found perched in a tree right above the path, some local raptors, many gnatcatchers, and a young Great Blue Heron resting at the lily pond. Winds are supposed to blow north tonight through till after midnight on Friday night, might bring some travelers with them. Keep an eye out!
