Fortunate find

A few weeks back I posted about a trip to Warnimont Park in Cudahy, Wis. I stumbled on this idyllic park by Lake Michigan in between other commitments in Milwaukee and saw several birds in less than 30 minutes. A rock wren has been sighted there in recent days according to the Wisconsin birding listserv. Rock wrens are a species of rocky slopes and canyons west of the Great Plains. My only rock wren experience was at about 7,000 feet in the mountains above Tucson, Ariz.
