June 13, 2015 Tamara Quays and Pixieland

It was a blue-sky morning for this bird walk and the 31 birders who joined trip leader, Mark Elliott. The group moved quietly along Frazier Road stopping often to listen to the calls from a variety of birds and while some were identified by sounds others came out of the trees for a good look. The meadow was at it’s best and opened the sky up for us to get a good view at a small group of Great Blue Herons and Osprey. The group then traveled to Pixieland for more birding.
