Overcast
skies gave way to steady rain on today's NTOS-sponsored Radnor Lake walk. This
kept the numbers low for both "observers" and "observees".
The group
did see one late-season Eastern Kingbird along the dam road. Later a Great
Egret flew past along the lake's edge. The egret stirred up a Great Blue Heron
and at one point the two birds flew across the lake together.
Below is a
list of birds observed:
