June 6, 2015 Saturday Bird Walk
Warm and partly cloudy. 60°F. 2-6 mph. 20 participants.
|

We came across a huge hatch of damselflies this morning, especially at Teller Pond #5. As you will see from the slide show, the blackbirds were taking full advantage of this hatch. Young coots and pied-billed grebes were out this morning. June is such a great bird watching month because of all the activity surrounding nesting and caring for young.
