AA Bird Club at Thomas Point Park

The AABC scheduled a walk at Thomas Point Park this morning, and let me tag along. It was led by Dan Haas, a very knowledgeable birder, and I learned a lot from his insight and instruction.
Many of the birds were quite distant, so good photos weren’t possible, so I’m just posting the best ones.
I stopped at Quiet Waters Park afterward, but it was essentially fruitless.
