Weather: Mid to high sixties and sunny
Habitat: The habitats of Delta Park are primarily wetlands and shore front areas. The wetlands surround the river feeding into lake Champlain, and support a wide variety of waterfowl and song bird species. Some of the more popular species within this habitat included Canada Goose, Mallards, Great Blue Heron, and Wood Ducks. Contrarily, the shore front habitat had species typically found around large water bodies and coastlines. Examples included Herring Gull, Ring-billed Gull, and Double-crested Cormorant. Some interesting sitings included the Least Sandpiper and Marsh Wren who were found within the tall grasses covering parts of the shoreline. Other more common species, such as the Northern Cardinal, Black-capped Chickadee, and Common Grackle, were found nesting in the trees bordering the boardwalk.
