We were promised the first nice day in a long time, and the weather Gods delivered.
I left early for Jonas Green Park, and it was a real treat. I’ve never seen so many Grebes in one place, and there were a few other nice birds to make it a great trip.
I don’t often see Long Tailed Ducks at Jonas Green.
There was a good turnout of Horned Grebes.
Cornell:”The Red-necked Grebe breeds on small inland lakes in Canada and Alaska, and winters along both coasts of North America. Boldly marked, vocal, and aggressive during the breeding season, it is quiet and subtly attired in winter.”
We’ve had an unusual number of these birds this year.
First Slug of the season.
