Diann, I'm intrigued about the Bethine Church trail, does it run adjacent to the Park Center bridge? I grew up near there and a few times last spring before things went crazy, I birded it with some friends. We walked from Eckart to Park Center, and we entered several named areas - Marianne Williams, etc., birded near the bridge in a beautiful wild riparian area, had lunch, then headed to Shakespeare Festival grounds. It is much changed since my brothers and I waded/floated that part of the river. Liz Medes Emmett

That's a good variety of species. It's always fun to watch young ones. Along the Bethine Church Trail in Boise Saturday morning (8/1/2020) I observed Great Blue Heron, Belted Kingfisher, Black-capped Chickadee, plus young ones and adults of Cassin's Finch, Cedar Waxwing, and Mute Swan. It's a busy part of the birding season. Diann Stone Boise Depot Bench
