Four birders bravely ventured to Radnor Lake for the fifth of the 2014 NTOS-sponsored Spring Radnor Walks. Most of the birds were tucked in their beds keeping dry, but we did have a few highlights including a briefly seen (yet very vocal!) Barred Owl in the West parking lot, several Swainson's Thrushes, a Veery, and one Wood Thrush in various locations along the Lake Trail, and a Northern Waterthrush bobbing in a honeysuckle bush on Otter Creek Road. A complete list of species is below.
