GSBAS Nature Walk 04/27/2021 St Joseph Campus Brentwood NY

 What a great walk for this time of year. Fifteen people turned out for what was a pleasant day with some decent birding. The day started slightly cloudy but the sun did break through and warm up.

We were joined by Sister Karen Burke and Amanda Furcall. They are the folks that are reestablishing the campus to a more natural and self sustaining environment. We had thirty species of birds on our walk. Some highlights were, Black Vulture, Blue Headed Vireo, Black and White Warbler, Pine Warbler and Yellow-rumped Warbler. At the end of our walk we were treated to seeing a Killdeer on nest.

The campus is open to the public 6:00 to 6:00 and is a great place to visit to enjoy the outdoors
