Dr. Chris Lituma's Ornithology Class was at Old Hemlock this morning for an hour bird walk. I was impressed with the students' knowledge of the scientific names of our birds. Not too bad of a list for lack of time to hit all of our habitats. The bird of the day for the groups was the Red-headed Woodpecker. One student told the it completed all the woodpeckers on his WV List.
