This evening (Wednesday, March 31) I made "quick" bike ride on the Musketawa Trail, east to Conklin and back, and encountered 48 species. Eastern Towhee and Vesper Sparrow were new for the year for me (though the former has likely been around for awhile). During a side trip to the Ravenna Sewage Ponds, I saw my first Blue-winged Teal of the year - the first "new" duck since Ruddy Ducks returned to the Wastewater on March 14. Between Swanson Road and Black Creek, I heard 18 American Woodcocks, the most I have found in a single day in Muskegon County.
A couple other new arrivals were Yellow-bellied Sapsucker at Kruse Park this morning and Field Sparrow there yesterday (3/30).
