Rob Bate report
Great day for unusual birds. Add to the list below the Mourning Warbler seen, along with Rob Jett, his wife Robin and Heydi Lopes, coming to the water in the Vale. Acadian Flycatcher seen earlier with Rob, and the Alder Flycatcher seen on Lookout. I got a glimpse of the juvenile Bald Eagle that Kier and Tom spotted over the Vale this morning to add to my Brooklyn list.
