Grasslands

In the post on Lakehurst I lamented the lack of grassland bird habitat.

This is what good grassland bird habitat looks like.

This is Laurel Run Park, one of the newest parks in the Burlington County park system. And here we saw and heard at least five Grasshopper Sparrows, one Horned Lark, and two or three Dickcissels (as many as three have been reported).

Seems the birds know a good place when they see it.
