Hi Peter,

We had some great weather and it turned out to be very birdy. We had 60 species and good numbers of some, including lots of American redstarts.

Highlights were
Connecticut Warbler (found by Adelia and eventually seen by everyone, albeit mostly in brief bits and pieces)
Yellow-billed Cuckoo
1 Tennessee, a few Cape Mays, Black-throated Blue and Green, Magnolia, Northern Parula; a total of 16 species of warblers.

Here's the list. I'll send a couple of photos later if I have a chance.

Best regards,
Tom
