The weather was perfect today for a walk trough the grassland trails at Watkins Lake.  Our group of 15 started on the east side and walked the trail to the lookout of the wetland to the north. After returning to parking are we continued west to the upland grassland area to walk the red trail loop.

Highlight species include:

• Northern Rough-winged Swallow
• Eastern Towhee
• Bobolink
• Eastern Meadowlark
• Scarlet Tanager

See the trip's eBird checklist  for full species list.
