This afternoon, from ~ 1530 to 1750, after the rain stopped, but with the Sun being very fickle, I paid my 2nd visit to this fairly new, county park. I had a FOY Bank, along with Rough-winged, Tree and Barn Swallows, all hawking insects over it's fresh-water pond. When Tom Moran joined me at ~ 1630, all 4 species were still present, with the "brown ones" giving him a quick 2/3's of a "hat-trick" ! Other common species at the pond included a Green-winged Teal, at least 2 Greater Yellowlegs and possibly 2 lessers. During our fairly short outing we didn't come across any other birds to speak of, but we both enjoyed walking a small amount of it's trail system. Cheers, Bob --
