This morning a small but engaged group of three joined the HMBC Field Trip in Anchor Diamond Park, Town of Ballston Lake. We were lucky -- we avoided the raindrops -- and for our perseverance, we were honored to observe 38 avian friends (full list below), several furry friends (chipmunk, gray and red squirrels), and one prickly friend – a good-sized porcupine sleeping high in the canopy! Bird highlights included eight (8) warbler species, including seemingly omnipresent Ovenbirds (at least 14 individuals), as well as one very proud resident calling Louisiana Waterthrush. Other highlights included a day-calling Barred Owl, a five-pack of woodpeckers (dipped on Flicker), Veery, Wood Thrush and multiple Scarlet Tanagers.
