Under a mostly sunny sky with the temperature ranging from the mid-50s to upper 60s, eleven birders trekked up to scenic Boston Lot Lake this morning recording 45 species over a 2.5 hour period. The count included a respectable twelve warbler species and five of the six woodpeckers species likely to occur in our area. Here's an onsite account from Megan Massa.
"The second Mascoma Audubon Warbler Wednesday walk of 2025 wasn't as mind-boggling as last week's fallout event" (ed. note: 60 species), "but we still turned up a respectable showing of 45 species. The birds were shy this morning, with many species on this list heard only. The audio scape was invaded by a parade of trucks and chainsaws doing maintenance in the powerline cut, several plane flyovers, and alarms from the Wilder Dam.
We had many species of wildflowers blooming on the walk, including foamflower, red columbine, red trillium, gaywings, and wild ginger."
