The Raven Rock St. Pk. Spring Bird Count for 2026 took place on May 3. We came up with 102 species and 2806 individual birds. We had to delay the count a day because of rain, but we were still able to field 7 parties, with 13 total birders. On the count day, we enjoyed cool temperatures and clear skies, albeit with some wind.
Notable finds were 9 Anhingas, 5 Northern House-wrens, a Grasshopper Sparrow, 33 Bobolinks, 4 Swainson's Warblers, and 3 Northern Yellow Warblers.
Our Christmas count is tentatively scheduled for Sat., Dec. 19, and we can always use additional birders.
