September 1, 2014 Eagle Marsh
Rodger Rang and Ed Powers co-lead 11 participants in Stockbridge Audubon's first field trip of the season at Eagle Marsh, co-sponsored by Little River Wetlands Project. As Rodger noted yesterday, shorebird habitat was inundated; hence, no shorebirds, except one Killdeer. We did have some nice birds, though.
