14 May BIRD REPORT – Huttopia

It was a very warm morning at Huttopia with a group of 18! The highlight was the Raven’s nest with 3 ravens in it.  No chicks yet but a little family gathering nonetheless. Also, we tried to find the Blackburnian warbler singing in the hemlock tree for a while and I got a view of it but most did not see him.  What a beautiful bird!  We have a long list of species seen or heard – 30 species in all.  Huttopia is such a great place for birding. Thanks to everyone who came on the hike we had an enthusiastic group including 2 kids and 2 visitors from England.  I’m enjoying getting to know some of the participants who are returning every week. Keep it up!
