Today I checked the Cumberland Terminus, finding very little but I birded a
spot I'm calling the Terminus Sparrow Field which may actually be closer to
Riverside Park
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S11730674
There weren't tons of sparrows there. Its a little bit grown over now but I
did find a Lincoln's Sparrow and some White-throated and Song Sparrows.
There was also a Green Heron there and an Osprey flew downriver.
Yesterday I birded at Finzel, Piney and Meadows CG where the highlights
were Pine Siskin at Finzel (I also had one there previously ... within the
past couple of weeks), Ring-necked Ducks and Pied Billed Grebes at LIttle
Meadows Lake, Greater Yellowlegs and Great Blue Herons at Piney Reservoir.
Green Heron 1 will post a photo - appeared to be an immature based on
some of the feather edges on the wing.

I also had about 20 Wild Turkeys on Gravel Hill Road going between Finzel
Swamp and Piney Reservoir. I had 21 Killdeer at the Reservoir and a Greater
Yellowlegs. At Little Meadows Lake I had 6 Ring-necked ducks which eBird
flagged (eventually I'll post photos with the list).
