Nice day for a Warbler Walk








It was cold this morning, but there was no wind on Park Point, providing some lovely birding conditions. And, thanks to my poor promotional skills, few people know about the warbler walks so we had a nice, small group of just 6. We didn't have any warblers, but had some really lovely sightings.
