6-15-19 Deer Run Birding Bonanza Species List and Summary
Today was the Birding Bonanza at Deer Run Forest Preserve. The Winnebago County Forest Preserve Get Outside Program has this walk every year, where we go on a 2 hour hike to bird. Deer Run is mostly a prairie, so we did see a lot of prairie species. We arrived there to discover several other people waiting for them to start. It was cool at the beginning, around 65 degrees. The sun came out after about the first hour, and I had a wonderful time on this walk. I hope to come here again. Here is our full list-
1 Bald Eagle
2 Rose-Breasted Grosbeaks
3 Eastern Kingbirds
3 Eastern Meadowlarks
2 Common Yellowthroats
50 Tree Swallows
6 American Goldfinches
2 Baltimore Orioles
4 Dickcissels
1 Barn Swallow
2 Song Sparrows
1 unknown flycatcher
1 Sandhill Crane
1 Indigo Bunting (Heard only)
1 Red-Bellied Woodpecker (Heard only)
1 Blue Winged Warbler (Heard only)
I really hope to come back here again, as the birding was fantastic.
