Lemon Creek Wildflower Preserve – 2/26/22 Trip Report

We had a great turnout for our guided walk, with a combination of Peace River Audubon Members and Lemon Bay Conservancy members. As we looked for birds, Eva Furner, pointed out the renovations that had been completed as part of the long range plan for the preserve. It was a beautiful sunny day and we saw about 40 different bird species on our walk. We covered both the east and west sides and stopped at the feeding station. Some of the highlights included a White Pelican, an Osprey carrying a fish, a Pileated Woodpecker working on it’s nest, and a female Painted Bunting at the feeders.
