Today Kay and the kids and I hiked the 4 mile river loop at Icicle Canyon. It is a relatively level, well marked and maintained 4-mile trail that parallels the creek on both sides, crossing the creek below and above the trailhead.  We started our hike at about noon, so it was fairly quiet birding throughout, but it gave me a chance to try out my new camera and have family time.  We did hear several PSFL, at least a couple Hammond’s flycatchers, a couple I suspect but an not sure were Dusky Flycatchers, and a few common birds.  Overall windy, cool and a nice walk.
