There was a nice turn out of 15 people on a cool Saturday morning at Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve October 14 , It was great weather for bird watching. It was good to see a few warbler species still in the area. Lots of Phoebes were still here as well. Numerous Towhees were quite vocal and abundant as were the Bluejays. It was nice to see all the Ruby-crowned Kinglets.
