On April 14, 2013, the Essex County Field Naturalists’ headed out to Hillman Marsh with Kory Renaud as their guide. Despite the chilly weather, a good time was enjoyed by all. The grand total for the day was 57 species, including a good variety of waterfowl, some shorebirds, Common Loons, many Kinglets (both Golden and Ruby-crowned), and several other songbirds!

Several upgrades have been made to Hillman recently. Here, members check out the view from the new boardwalk.
