Yesterday afternoon at 3:30 I hiked for about an hour and a half at the Lindsay Parsons Biodome. It was sunny/passing clouds and quite windy, which prpbably accoutns for how quiet it was. Most of what I heard, other than frogs, a Grey Catbird, and some crows and a bluejay, were chip notes. Most of the territory I covered was visibly quiet too, but the section of the blue trail which runs east-west north of the lakes and leads to the tracks crossing had some birds. There is mostly honeysuckle (or something very similar) there and the birds were flitting back and forth across the trail.
