May Bird Walk - Zeigler Park


(Photo of American Redstart ...)
Ziegler Park in Mayville lived up to its reputation as a great place for birding during our May walk. Highlights included a chorus of Tennessee Warblers for quite a long part of the walk, an evergreen tree with multiple American Redstarts chasing each other around and in the tree, and a Scarlet Tanager as a final act. We also watched multiple Baltimre Orioles and one Orchard Oriole among many other fun to see birds.
A full list of sightings is below.

Below is a complete list of bird species identified.
