Hadley Hotspots

Twelve birders showed for a trip around Hadley in search of good birds and were not disappointed.  A pond on Moody Bridge Rd gave us one highlight bird, a Sora.  We saw Orchard Orioles carrying nest building material. On Aqua Vitae Rd, we spotted Baltimore Oriole on its nest, a Bluebird and 3 Red-tailed Hawks.  In the Honey Pot, we got views of Willow Flycatcher, 4 Common Mergansers, 2 Killdeer, a Great Blue Heron, 2 Flickers, 2 Warbling Vireo, 8 Tree Swallows, a Brown Thrasher and two Mockingbirds.
