Good afternoon all, It's a beautiful, warm, breezy day. We had a great group of volunteers here this morning helping to remove the invasive honeysuckles that inhabit our woodland. Lot's of birding done while yanking bushes out! And many birds enjoyed on a walk afterwards. Here is the bird list I compiled. Enjoy the day!
