Hey everyone,
 
This evening I birded along Mink Brook for an hour and a half. It was generally pretty quiet, and I did not really see much different besides a couple House Wrens and a Field Sparrow. The Field Sparrow seemed a little out of place near the side of the trail, next to the forest, but that could just be me. I also heard one of the Merlins briefly calling. 
 
Other animals seen include: Beaver, Woodchuck, and Common Snapping Turtle. Below is the list of birds I had this evening.
 
Cheers,
Kyle Kittelberger
