REPORT AUDUBON MONTHLY BIRDWALK
EL CHARCO DEL INGENIO
15 JANUARY 2012
Audubon leads a birdwalk on the third Sunday of every month—this month, that’s the 18th.
In the past at this site we have seen and heard Green Kingfishers, Blue and Black-headed Grosbeaks, Groove-billed Anis, Crested Caracaras, White-tailed Kites and a variety of swallows, including Barn, Northern Rough-winged and the relatively rare Cliff Swallow.
The walk is open to beginning and experienced birders. Wear sturdy walking shoes and bring water and a hat. Carpooling is necessary, so if you have a car, please bring it. Plan to arrive at 7:45, as we leave promptly at 8 to catch the early birds.
Binoculars and a bird book are helpful, but not essential. We will have telescopes, a few pairs of binoculars to lend, and Audubon bird guides for purchase. You'll be back by about noon, with new entries for your life list and new birding friends.
