Birding at Lamb's Creek

These are the results of the Lamb's Creek walk Terry and I did today with four others from the Tiadaghton Audubon Society. Our leader, Gary kept the group list but I only listed those birds I saw or could identify by call. Our purpose today was to aid in the Pennsylvania Breeding Bird Atlas. Many birds became eligible for listing today (June 1) and there were few birds listed for this block so we thought we would try to help out. The highlights of our walk, for me anyway, would have to be the yellow-billed cuckoos and the Baltimore orioles.
