April Happenings and Update - April 22, 2013

Well, I have neglected to post for quite some time.  Spring has a later start this year as I compare notes from last year.  There were eggs in nest boxes in march last year but not this year.  None the less there is much activity and 5 of 7 boxes now have eggs.
I have been helping with birding at Grand Vue.  Two Saturdays a month I lead birding outings.  So far only one scheduled day had no shows.  April 6 was a chilly day and three people showed up.  We walked a slow pace noting common birds.  Bluebirds, pileated woodpecker, and towhees were notable.  Afterwards we enjoyed lunch at the golf shop with Scott Shalaway and Grand Vue personnel.  Rick Vargo showed nest boxes being made from old cedar signs.
