Quick walk around the Saltmarsh Nature Trail this morning. Would have liked to be there a little earlier in the tide cycle, but still saw a trio of willets and a clapper rail stalking through the spartina grass. Also had 6 species of sparrow: house, white-throated, song, swamp, field, and savannah. Other highlights were boat-tailed grackle, monk parakeets, an osprey on one of the nest platforms and another eating nearby, and a peregrine falcon flyover. C.
