Bird News From Nahanton Park and Other Musings. Sunday, May 31, 2015. Got to the park this morning around 8:00. It was 68 degrees and cloudy as it had rained earlier. Checked out the oriole nest for little Henry, but the parents must have been out looking for food, although I could hear some orioles calling to each other. A blue heron flew overhead. Some very large mourning doves perched together on a horizontal pole. Little babies was there. Her husband was nearby, but obviously not into child care.
