Early morning bird walks at the Wildlife Sanctuary.
Great to be returning to Green Bay for Spring migration.
This year a Barred Owl is nesting in the park.
Look carefully and you will see the owlet peeking
This is a great place for warbler migration - one of the rarities
that everyone was looking for was the Canada Warbler.
The Canada Warbler was one of the 26 warbler species that we
saw in the 12 days we birded at the Sanctuary.
Palm Warbler
Yellow Warbler
Black & White Warbler
