7.6.15 - Bird Walks - Camp Wingate*Kirkland - Yarmouthport, MA

We set off on our afternoon bird walks in great spirits and good company, and the birds did not disappoint us!  It's a much more enjoyable time when you're accompanied by such nature and bird-loving friends!  These kiddos know SO much about the world and are eager to share their insights and to observe the birds that seem to be thriving in the varied habitats all over this fine camp.   Looking forward to helping establish a new club at Camp W*K... the Bird & Nature Club!  See you tomorrow bird lovers!  (double click photos to enlarge)
