FJ8- Lone Rock Point

On April 29th, 2020 I went to Rock Point to watch birds (and enjoy the excellent weather). I was there from about 12:15-1:45pm. It was sunny with a slight breeze. The habitat was mostly wooded, with the foot trails not too far from me. I sat past the main point on Rock Point. I was next to the edge so I was able to observe birds in the water and in the woods.

While I was out I saw 2x House Sparrows playing around in a tree that had fallen over. I saw and heard quite a few Black-capped Chickadees. I was able to hear a woodpecker in the distance but could not visually locate it. I also heard two very loud Canadian geese next to me, I couldn't see them for a few seconds but then they zoomed past me, above the water, flying at the same elevation as the land. I heard many other birds but I do not remember what bird calls come from which bird, so I'm not even going to try and identify those.
