Hairy Woodpecker at Terrapin Nature Park.

Back to Sandy Point and Terrapin again, with decent results. The sunrise was superb, and I found some nice birds at Terrapin, with help from Diana.

I haven’t seen a Hairy Woodpecker in quite a while, and got a nice warbler and some other good birds. Fall is here and the birds are finally showing up.
