This weekend's walk through the Nature Center

The Nature Center woods are filled with the sounds of birds. Birders were out to catch the Warbler migration. A few types of Warblers like the Ovenbird will stay while others are just passing through to destinations farther north. The Ovenbird's name is derived from the dome-shaped nest it constructs which resembles a Dutch oven.

I also came across a Wood Thrush on her nest. Check out this week's gallery of bird's and other scenes at the Churchville Nature Center.
