Bennington Lake

The summer birds have arrived!  On our Tuesday morning walk this week we saw Bullock's orioles, western wood peewees, yellow-breasted chats, western and eastern kingbirds, house wrens, yellow warblers, western tanagers, spotted sandpipers and more.  There are still two osprey fishing the lake and the tree swallows seem to like the houses Chris and John from the Corp put up around the lake.  There were seven goslings and 13 ducklings on the edge of the lake.  Anyone is welcome to join us on our weekly survey of the birds at the lake.  We are currently meeting Tuesdays at 8:00 a.m.in the parking lot.
