On a picture perfect Spring day five ML Birders and one guest visited Mercer County Parks Abbott Marshlands (formerly Trenton-Hamilton Marsh) just east of Trenton, NJ.
The day had an early nip in the air but warmed to bright and sunny very quickly. ML Birders walked the trails of Lumberton Leas and the central meadow and saw and heard a total of 33 species in the wetlands and uplands areas.
Fourteen ML Birders and two guests visited the open farmlands, tidal marshes and Delaware Bayshore of Salem County on a warm, partly sunny and very blustery day.
On a fairly pleasant day at the Shore the only thing missing were the objects of our trip, namely, the birds!! The unseasonably mild weather might be the culprit.
Four intrepid ML Birders and three guests made the trek to Conowingo Dam on the Susquehanna River in MD on a delightful sunny day with temperatures in the 60’s. The Bald Eagles were the highlight of the day.
Twenty-three ML Birders and guests saw 41 species at the refuge and surrounding environs on a bright sunny day. Lunch at nearby Shea’s restaurant capped the day.
The ML Birders saw 47 species at Cape May and environs on a lovely warm, partly sunny day. Sites visited were the Light House and Hawk Watch Platform, a seaside meadow, the Audubon Center and Higbee Beach where a group of porpoises frolicked offshore for our entertainment.
The temperature was 68 degrees when we started out from Lumberton. It was a partly cloudy morning with patches of sun peeking through. The temperature reached 83 degrees before we returned at noon.
