Hurshtown Reservoir
March 31, 2019


Stockbridge Audubon held its second Hurshtown field trip of the spring, attracting 18 observers.  While there have been more species in the past, the number of Common Loons was beyond anything seen there before.  There were also good numbers of Horned Grebes, and a scattering of other water birds.
