May 2: Ethan Allen Park

I got to Ethan Allen park on Tuesday, May 2 and could hear the song sparrows singing as soon as I got out of my car. The weather was about 60 degrees and sunny with some clouds. I walked into the park and the first bird I saw was a blue jay in a tree. I started to see other things as I got deeper into the park, like goldfinches, house finches, house sparrows, song sparrows, common grackles, crows and ravens, eastern phoebes, robins, chickadees, downy and hairy woodpeckers, a chipping sparrow and a white-throated sparrow, and a northern flicker. I saw a pair of red-tailed hawks nesting as well.
