Migrants and Nesting Birds with Tony Beck

May 9, 2013 7:30 am

We met at Andrew Haydon Park: Nina, Betty, Peter, Ian, Heather, Tony, me and a couple Mary & Jeff, whose biologist daughter gave them this outing as a gift.  After checking out the park and water, we went to Shirley's Bay.  Here we got scope views of the Bald Eagle on the nest.  We went for a stroll over to Hilda where we picked up a few more species.
