Fort Walla Walla Birds

Since Bennington Lake and Rooks Park are closed, the Tuesday walkers decided to see what birds we could find at Fort Walla Walla.  There are many different places to look for birds there and MerryLynn has spent a lot of time birding the area, so we had a good guide to take us to the best spots.  Everyone got great looks at a white-throated sparrow – that was the highlight of the morning.  Other nice birds seen were hermit thrushes, Wilson's warblers, many ruby-crowned kinglets, yellow-rumped warblers, flickers and black-capped chickadees.  It was nice to bird a different area right here in Walla Walla, although we were wondering what we were missing at Bennington.
