November 14, 2015   Jasper-Pulaski FWA

Except for the two-hour visit to Hurshtown Reservoir next Sunday, Stockbridge Audubon completed its fall field trip schedule at Jasper-Pulaski FWA.
 
Waterfowl and shorebirds were almost completely missing, and birds in general were not abundant.  Even the Sandhill Crane spectacle seemed down. Nevertheless, it was a pleasant day in the field.
