Fox Island
April 20, 2019

Cynthia and I taught a bird class for Indiana Master Naturalists at Fox Island today.  Then the class was divided into four parties, and with the help of Sandy Schacht and Eric Helfrich, conducted a short bird hike.  In spite of a chilly, rainy day, we managed to collectively find 28 species.
