A BIG Thanks 🙏 to GLT Board Member John Weeks and his wife, Chris Chinni, for once again leading our GLT Spring Bird Walks on the Dismal Brook Wildlife Preserve this weekend! This is always one of our most popular events of the year, and with good reason! More than 50 species of birds were identified on each walk, including: a pair of Virginia Rails, a Baltimore Oriole, a Scarlet Tanager, a Rose-breasted Grosbeak, three Wood Ducks, and a Black-and-white Warbler, among others.
