At Jackman Wetlands this morning I was happy to get great views of an Oriole feeding its chicks. Also saw a Hooded Merganser with 5 young ones following it; I suspect this is the same bird that was using the nest box with a picture of an owl on it in the north pond. Nice to see nesting in spite of the increasing human activity in the park. Between the excavating school, the retriever club, and the disc golfers (their tournament today took over the entirety of the wetlands area in addition to the existing course), there's a lot going on.

Nice to get a Hooded Merganser breeding around here.
Too bad about the human activity. Some parks do a very good job of balancing human disturbance and keeping wildlife at peace.
