The Tuesday walkers were out early at Bennington Lake on August 13. Nesting season is winding down, but we did find young birds: western wood-peewees, yellow warblers, eastern kingbirds, cedar waxwings and house wrens. There were 3 greater yellowlegs with the killdeer and spotted sandpiper on the mud and the osprey was on his usual snag. Other raptors included a Swainson's hawk, a northern harrier and a cooper's hawk. We saw or heard a total of 47 species.
