Christmas Bird Count - Friday Dec 20

We have scheduled our CBC in 2024 on Friday, December 20. Our count last year was successful and the weather was all right. Hope many of you can participate again this year. Please contact Doug Overacker at cdoveracker@woh.rr.com if you are interested. We will assign everyone to cover certain areas. Then you will report your results to Doug who will tally the results.

Sunday, April 27  7:30 AM  Buck Creek State Park

We will meet at the disc golf parking lot this morning. We will walk some of the bridal trails. The warm weather this week should bring many migrants. We should see several species of warblers plus other migrants like kinglets, Rose-breasted Grosbeaks, orioles and other birds. The grass may be wet and after the rain on Friday and Saturday it may be a bit muddy. Email Doug Overacker at cdoveracker@woh.rr.com if you are coming so that he will know to look for you. Also email him if you have any questions.

Recent Bird Sightings

Only a few species of warblers have shown up so far including Yellow-throated Warblers, Northern Parulas, Yellow Warblers, Yellow-rumped Warblers, and Palm Warblers. More should show up this week. So far we have seen Warbling Vireos but a couple other species should show up this week. Lots of Tree and Northern Rough-winged Swallows have arrived.
