The birds knew the storm was coming... It was a flurry of activity yesterday with birds eating, foraging, scoping out tree holes, and fluffing up to stay warm. At one point the ground was alive with sparrows foraging for insects in leaf litter! ๐Ÿชถ #birds #CromwellValleyPark

Beautiful birds today, even though most preferred to stay low in the brush to avoid the wind. It's late for orange-crowned warblers, but I saw my first one ever! And my second red-breasted nuthatch ๐Ÿ˜Š ๐Ÿชถ #birds #CromwellValleyPark

The first time I went out birding by myself, I found 3 cardinals. I didn't even notice any other birds. Today, I correctly identified 30 different birds at the same park, and am so proud of all of the work I put in to get here! ๐Ÿชถ #birds #CromwellValleyPark

Coming in for a landing in the new beaver pond. Beavers create habitat and it's fun to see how quickly nature takes advantage of it. #cromwellvalleypark #minebankrun #beaver #beaverponds #GreatBlueHeron #mallards #cromwellcrittercam
