10/22 Milford, Connecticut Audubon Coastal Center 9:40am-1PM. sunny, high tide-rising, 63F. Beautiful morning at the Coastal Center-the marsh grass is golden now. We had many visitors admiring the marsh and our trails. On the marsh: 1 Great Egret, 10 American Black ducks, 7 Black bellied plovers, 5 D.C. Cormorants flew over, Ring bill and Herring gulls. Grounds & feeders: 1 juvenile Yellow crowned night heron staring at me head on, sitting in an evergreen, 1 White Crowned sparrow, 2 Song sparrows, 15 House sparrows, 6 White throated sparrows, 8 Mourning doves, 5 very vocal Robins, 2 Northern Cardinals, 4 Blue Jays, 2 White breasted nuthatches, 3 Tufted Titmice, 8 House finches eating berries in one of the red cedars, 9 Yellow rumped warblers ( probably more), and about 200 Starlings on the wires & in a puddle as I drove out. Merlin picked up Red eyed vireo and Blue Grosbeak, but I didn't see them. Bev Propen, Orange
