Evening Field Trip to Bennington Lake

It was a very windy evening, but that didn't keep over 20 people from joining Mike Denny for a walk around the lake.  At the parking lot we watched hundreds of swallows flying over the water, an osprey fishing, and baby great horned owls in their hole.  We didn't hear any owls on the walk, but Mike explained owl behavior and habitat to the group and also familiarized us with some of the plants along the trail.  Walking carefully along the somewhat muddy trail, flashlights were on at the end making an interesting sight.
