12/18 Milford, Connecticut Audubon Coastal Center. 10am-1PM. sunny, 37-50F, mid-tide-rising, sunny, the marsh was like a sheet of glass reflecting the golden color of the marsh grass. In the parking lot I was greeted by a Cardinal, 4 House finches and Merlin identified a Yellow rumped warbler-but I couldn't locate it. A few visitors today enjoying the views and our avian friends. On the marsh: (viewed with bins & scopes) about 71 Canada Geese, 2 mallards, 11 American Black ducks, 10 Gadwall, 14 Buffleheads swimming & diving, 1 American Wigeon, 1 Northern Harrier coasting over and 3 Ring billed gulls. On the grounds & feeders: 4 Northern Cardinals, 3 Chickadees, 4 Titmice, 3 Song sparrows, 8 House finches, and 4 House sparrows. Wishing everyone a very Happy & Birdy 2025. Bev Propen, Orange
