Twilight Watch at the Meadows - Wednesday, September 7th, 2016

Tonight's Twilight at the Meadows walk was most enjoyable. A very good mix of bird species but the highlights of the evening were a couple of hunting Merlins and a very cooperative Common Nighthawk. Leaders: Warren Cairo and Bill Smythe.
