For our January Fourth Monday birdwalk we will explore Jamison Park and the (newly refurbished) Muddy Creek Greenway Trail. We will expect to see our usual winter resident birds (Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Hermit Thrush, etc.) and an assortment of sparrows. Jamison Park is our most reliable in-town site for finding White-crowned Sparrows, and this favorite little beauty was seen there on this year’s Christmas Bird Count.
We will gather with trip leader Ron Morris at Jamison Park for a start time of 8:30 AM on Monday, January 26. Please dress for the weather, and bring water and snacks as needed. There are restroom facilities at Jamison, and the trails are mostly flat and easy to navigate on foot. The Muddy Creek Trail is wide and paved, but there may be some walking on mowed grassy trails in Jamison Park.
