There were 23 tundra swans flying away from Bennington Lake as MerryLynn arrived for our Tuesday walk on February 18. Even though the lake was open, there were only a few mallards on the water. It was very quiet walking the trails. We did see 2 great horned owls and heard a third one. Near the parking lot we came across a small flock of black-capped chickadees that included a golden-crowned kinglet. The wind didn't pick up until we were back in the parking lot and it didn't rain, so all in all it was a good walk. We saw or heard a total of 20 species. Ginger
