Another surprising morning. Today I started much early than the previous day (26 Sept 2014). I had great views of the Great Cormorant by the lake. Also I got my 1st time for PP, a Northern Harrier flying over Lookout Hill.
Warblers, amazing day, with 11 sps seen. Chestnut-sided Warbler was a nice bonus to today's list. At the Butterfly Meadow, I saw 3 Indigo Buntings.
