Helen Carlson Wildlife Sanctuary: Portland, CT (7/21)

On Saturday the 21st I took a morning hike at Helen Carlson Wildlife Sanctuary in Portland. My bird list was pretty small. I even tried to call in the Worm-eating Warbler with a recording but he didn't bite. It was so quiet that I didn't take any bird photos. I did manage to take a couple of usable shots. The first was an unidentified dragonfly and the second was another Red Admiral (they certainly were common this year).

Birds: Blue Jay, Eastern Phoebe, Common Grackle, Red-wing Blackbird, Baltimore Oriole, Hermit Thrush, Tufted Titmouse, Black-capped Chickadee, Mallard, American Goldfinch, Mourning Dove, Belted Kingfisher, Red-eyed Vireo, Hairy Woodpecker, Red-bellied Woodpecker, Eastern Kingbird, Northern Flicker
