Birds Flying North to Breed at Bridgeport Sanctuary
Frank Novak, warden of the Biri Sanctuary in Fairfield, notes the northward bird migration is underway with new arrivals daily near Bridgeport. Early spring visitors include crackles, herring gulls, bluebirds, robins, meadowlarks, phoebes, red winged blackbirds, cedar birds, jays, owls, and crows. Weather and food conditions shape movements, with wintering birds shifting quarters and lingering hips providing scarce sustenance.
