We had a delightful visit to a section of the Park that is not normally open to visitors. We walked from the Trading Post to the floodplain of Glorieta Creek and followed it down to the east about half a mile. The usual summer resident swallows, warblers, vireos and grosbeaks were in evidence, along with Red-winged Blackbirds in the marsh grasses of an historical wetland area. Weather was not as hot as on some summer days, so conditions were very good for walking and birding. Our group was limited to 10, so we were mostly able to stay together. Thanks to the Park management for this opportunity — we look forward to future visits.
