"Second Saturday" Bird Walk at Rocky River Nature Center

Saturday, November 8, 2014

Leaders: Bill Deininger, Ken Gober, Dave Graskemper

15 birders, 25 species

Nothing frozen yet, but leaves were mostly off the trees, making good viewing of kinglets and chickadees.  Sparrows and goldfinches foraged and sang in the tall vegetation in the wetland behind the nature center.  Thanks Bill Deininger for the bird list, and Marti Burrows, Mark Eberling and Mary Ann Henderson for eBirding.
