Subject: [CT Birds] Harvest week one
We are only a few days in, but many birders visited one of the hotspots on our community garden list to enjoy fall birding, and beautiful birds were seen at every one! The leaves are starting to turn, the weather is still pretty nice, and no matter how many birds are found, it's great to spend time outdoors in beautiful places!
