Crosswinds Marsh

I walked around Crosswinds Marsh in southwest Wayne County this morning. It was a beautiful morning to be out. There were a few birds the best of which were probably Blue-headed Vireo and two Brown Thrashers. Good numbers of the expected sparrows were accompanied by a small flock of female and juvenile Indigo Buntings.

No bird photos, but other things seen were:

Twelve-spotted Skimmer

Not the best photo, but a White-faced Meadowhawk nevertheless.

My first Common Buckeye seen this year.

A gigantic wasp nest!
