The Sunday bird walk went to Hemer Park in Cedar. We
had great views of a Swainson's Thrush singing from a tree near the trail. Swainson's Thrush, Yellow Warbler and Orange-crowned
Warblers were singing throughout the morning.
A Western Wood Pewee was spotted perched
on a branch just off the trail. Three Cedar Waxwings flew over the viewing
platform. We spotted Mallards, Wood Ducks
and a Hooded Merganser on the water of the pond.
