Delightful birding marked the day for eight of us on a sunny day in the 70's with very light winds. Highlights included singing Indigo Buntings in the meadow, A pair of Scarlet Tanagers foraging overhead, Eastern Bluebirds working the meadow, and a succession of Great Blue Herons flying over the swamp as seen from the observation tower.
