Birding at Harpers Ferry

So in honor of the big bird day coming up I thought I would share what an amazing birding day we had at Harpers Ferry last Friday (a stretch I know). There were 12 students from Heritage Academy doing an great job at Water Canaries. On our way to the site we saw a beautiful pair of cardinals flittering about in the woods. As we collected our samples an osprey was flying overhead and looked to be on the hunt for a good meal. Not to be outdone, soon an eagle was spotted soaring up the valley...amazing. Finally one of the largest V's of geese I have ever seen flew overhead. We all took a moment to watch. It was a fantastic birding day made even better by a fantastic group of students.

Hope everyone has a wonderful turkey day,
Katrina
