CMBO Cape May Point State Park walk

This was emailed to me by Karl Lukens, re. the CMBO Cape May Point walk this morning.


"Still nice shore birds in Bunker pond although less than in previous days, and the Baird's Sandpiper was not to be found.

Land birds rather slow but a house Wren, Red-breasted Nuthatch, Baltimore Oriole, and numerous Kingbirds made it interesting. One Wilson's Snipe also flushed along the Yellow Trail."
