Bill Sefton reports: We had some nice late spring weather for the GBNA June walk with 18 birders able to participate. We identified 39 species on the day with 4 Red-headed Woodpeckers as the star attraction. We got to see the woodpeckers in flight and perched as well. An honorable mention goes to a Summer Tanager. We heard the tanager’s song at the beginning of the walk and caught just a glimpse of it as it flew, then heard it again at the end of the walk as we got back to the parking lot. The complete list of the 39 species identified is shown above.
