Longmeadow & Agawam

There were 15 participants on the trip to Longmeadow and Agawam.  Pynchon Point had pair of Wood Ducks going to a nesting hole in a big tree where they had nested many years ago.  Bondi’s Island had a few Ring-billed Gulls.  Mute Swans were nesting on Emerson Pond near the road and another single was at Pondside.  Also there was a pair of Ring-necked Ducks and a few Tree Swallows.  A bluebird was seen and heard singing from Tina Lane.  We walked into Bark Haul and found two adult Red-headed Woodpeckers and a pair of Bluebirds together.  On the way some of us glimpsed a Pied-billed Grebe in the pond along the road.
