Eagle Marsh
October 28, 2017
It seems like the first autumn day in the 30s is colder that a January day in the teens. Nevertheless, seven birders gathered for Stockbridge Audubon's field trip at Eagle Marsh. We had a nice array of dabbling ducks (but only one diving duck) and shorebirds, including a rather late Semipalmated Sandpipers.
