Eaton Birding Society - Seneca Meadows Wetlands Preserve

The Eaton Birding Society visited the Seneca Meadows Wetlands Preserve today. Lyn Jacobs led the walk. The group consisted of 14 birders included first timers - Mary and her son Mark from Oswego and Joni.

As we headed for the Northern Overlook a slight drizzle forced some to put on their rain ponchos.

Down in the grass an occasional Song Sparrow call could be heard. However, they went down so fast, it was nearly impossible to see them. There was one call was very distinctly different. It was identified as a Lincoln's Sparrow. This was a life bird for me.

The rain subsided as we approached the Prairie Overlook. A few wildflowers especially asters were still to be seen.

The group decided to have breakfast at the Star Diner in Waterloo. I opted out and went to the Magee Diner instead.

After digesting a breakfast of Western Omelet, home fries, rye toast and a bottomless cup of coffee, went to South Spring Pool and Tschache Pool for photo opportunities.

Decided to take a different route home and stopped in Montezuma at the Heritage Trail.

Another great day for birding.
