Bob Haynes and Dr. Marnie Rout conducted and led the training sessions this past weekend on Ornithology and Taxonomy for the current Cypress Basin Texas Master Naturalist trainees, and what a great weekend it was! I unfortunately couldn't attend all of the training, but the handouts are so informative and Saturday's bird walk was exciting and productive. Bob and Marnie are going to be contributing and sharing their knowledge on the ETN site when they can, so that is wonderful news, and Lee Eisenberg has come on board and we will be so fortunate to be hearing from him, as well. Photos follow of just two of the birds that we were able to see at the Refuge. The first is a Black-throated Green Warbler, and the second is of a Northern Parula.

I was browsing through my feed drinking my coffee when I saw the photo of the Black Throated Green Warbler. My first thought was to copy share the photo with you. Then I noticed it was your blog post to East Texas Naturalists. . .
