Birding

Did a bird walk yesterday morning down along the bike path in the Lambs Creek Recreation Area north of Mansfield. There were six of us on the walk and we came up with 36 species of birds in just about 2 1/2 hours. After all the rain we've been having it was good to get out and about with some friends.

Location: Lambs Crk Rec Area
Observation date: 6/25/09
Notes: We started at the boat ramp parking lot and walked the road and bike path to the south before turning around and heading back. The weather was clear with little breeze and temperatures ranging from 60 to 72 degrees.
Number of species: 36
