This morning I guided our three new interns on a bird hike through the heart of CNC's Minnesota Campus. We had 67 species without birding near the feeders. A few highlights were the Mourning Warbler foraging in the conifer stand between the wetland and the Apple Shack. We also had fly-overs of three different flocks of Caspian Terns. On the edge of the grass portion of the North Loop Trail we had both a Blue-winged Warbler and a Golden-winged Warbler. The river is still high so there is significant flooding in the bottoms, but we were still able to see and hear a few Northern Parulas. A Barred Owl was also hunting in the bottoms. A great morning to be out! Jen Vieth
