A most pleasant gathering of seven birders conducted a field trip to McCormick’s Farm this morning. Forty-four species were noted by sight and sound. From the flight of the Green and Great Blue Herons to the rattling of the Yellow-billed Cuckoo to Baby Mocker being fed and five species of Swallows, birding is good for the soul. Other highlights included: Solitary Sandpiper, Belted Kingfisher, Pileated Woodpecker, Eastern Kingbird, Cliff Swallow, Bank Swallow, and Cedar Waxwing. – Jo King
