After attending another of the many fine evening programs at Ottawa NWR offered during the
Biggest Week in American Birding (Ken Behrens program "Seawatching: Cutting Edge
Birding" repeats later this week: check the schedule on the BWIAM website), I headed to
Metzger Marsh. At trailhead for the wooded marsh walk, at the first small pulloff on the right
paralleling the initial section of canal past the CCYC building, I could hear an American
Bittern calling. While walking a short section of the trail into the marsh, I had a flyover Sandhill
Crane. This is the location where the "tame" Wild Turkey was seen over the last several days
(but I did not observe the turkey today). This pulloff is 'before' the final big turn, so if you are
heading directly toward the beach you have missed the trailhead.
FYI: There are several late morning, late afternoon, and early evening programs highlighted
on the BWIAB website.
