MethuenRailTrail

I took a friend out birding today along the rail trail and through the Nevins Sanctuary. Among the birds we saw today were 3 Green Herons, 9 Great Blue herons, 1 Red Tail Hawk and believe it or not 1 Immature Bald Eagle. Unfortunately I didn’t have a long enough lens to get the eagle, but two of the Green Herons were cooperative.
