This was the first LSNY Birds & Brews Walk, we divided into two groups after most of us got to see the Clay-colored Sparrow at Strawberry Fields. We separated to search the Ramble for spring migrants and were successful as many warblers, thrushes, and additional species were found! Around 7:30pm we headed to a local bar some casual conversations and libations. We totaled 39 species for the evening and fun was had by all! We have two more of these walks scheduled this spring and hopefully we will continue them in the future.
