Twelve birders participated in Tish’s inaugural monthly bird walk at 8am at Springdale Water Gardens in Greenville, VA. We spent 1 1/4 hours walking and covered about 3/4 of a mile. The group explored the variety of habitats at the Gardens including wetlands to forests to fields. It was a cold 22F start this morning! However, everyone enjoyed the walk, and the group ended up with 33 species! Highlights included Kildeer, Pileated Woodpecker, Purple Finch, Swamp Sparrow, Eastern Towhee, Yellow-rumped Warbler, Wild Turkey, and Canada Goose. Thanks for coming! –Tish Folsom
