Spring Season Wrap Up

Today was our last Tuesday Nature walk of the 2015 spring season. We were at Lakeland County Park in Ronkonkoma. As we left the parking lot we were greeted with the sounds of a Wood Thrush singing. What a great way to start or walk. We spotted the Thrush as we walked further down the path. It seemed to be hanging around in the area. We spotted a nest and left so it could return. At the end of our walk we again headed down the same path and this time saw the Thrush on the nest. A very nice sight to see.

The rest of our walk was heading south from the parking lot on the boardwalk. It is a very nice park with boardwalks and paths. We heard more birds than we saw but it was a great place for a walk in the woods. We did see some of the usual woodland birds expected at this time of year. We also happened to see a Muskrat in the streams. It was a nice walk to finish our season.
