We have five new stewards at Brinkley!  We met last week for orientation and introductions and a walk around the preserve.  They all Knew each other as they are Class of 2025 graduates.    

Lots of Cananda Geese on the pond along with a few buffleheads, hooded mergansers, and a black duck or two.   Sparrows and cardinals in the meadows and some very distant  birds at the seaside platform.  Found some ripe persimmons, saw some very early or very late blooming goldenrod  and saw two deer – one wading in the marsh!
