We have another chance to check out birds that can be found on this varied habitat property. The changes we implemented with our June visit worked well so we will once again meet at Kiawah Town Hall to consolidate vehicles. For this visit, we have coordinated with Sidi Limehouse to visit his fields in the area. We will park at the entrance to his fields and walk in for closer looks. A late October visit may mean a closer view of American Pipits, Horned Larks or Vesper Sparrows we have previously seen at a distance at this location. Of course we also hope to see the resident Loggerhead Shrike and some of our favorite species.
We expect to see a large variety of birds including Double-crested Cormorants, Egrets, Herons, Osprey and other birds of prey. As we enter the property, we hope to catch a glimpse of the resident American Coots and Roseatte Spoonbills. We should also see and hear some of the smaller birds like Tufted Titmice, Eastern Bluebirds, Northern Cardinals. We will drive to various locations on the property and then walk for better birding observations. For this visit, we do not plan to visit the “undeveloped” section as portions are currently under development.
To minimize the disruption to the residents, we are limiting this activity to 12 people in 4 vehicles. We will meet at Kiawah Town Hall at 8:00am to consolidate vehicles. We’ve added a question regarding end time to provide some flexibility for people with later commitments.
As always, be sure to bring your binoculars, hats, water and sunscreen.
