6/10/16 Touisett Marsh Wildlife Refuge walk

6/16/2016

On a gorgeous sunny breezy morning, 20 birders enjoyed a walk along the trails through fields, woods and along pond and riverfront, listening and looking, especially for any evidence of breeding birds. We also examined varieties of vegetation along the way.  Highlights included Osprey flying low overhead, a female yellow warbler carrying a winged insect to a hidden nest,a young downy woodpecker, and a pair of Eastern Kingbirds and Redwing Blackbirds chasing several crows.

Walk led by Lauren Parmalee and Jana Hesser for Barrington Public Library and Ocean State Bird Club.
