Birded the Grey Cloud Dunes SNA today. I found a pocket of Orchard = Orioles, Baltimore Orioles, Yellow Warblers and Eastern Kingbirds. = Looking East from the RR bridge, it is up the hill towards a lone live = tree. Just below the tree there is an area of light vegetation. It is = grape vines and honeysuckle. This area is probably easier to access from = the 110th street entrance (off of Ideal) rather than the 103rd/Hadley = entrance. that way you can avoid the poison ivy. Overall, saw 24 species. Would have had more if my song/call skills = were any good. Notables, in addition to the above, were: Rose-breasted Grosbeak Northern Flicker Brown Thrasher Lark Sparrow Vesper Sparrow and a few other LBB. My sparrow skills need lot's of work, too.
