A great start to the season. A dozen birders saw 61 species including 14 warblers on a cool sept morning. Highlights were worm eating Warbler, Blackburnian, prairie and red breasted nuthatch. A real team effort. We spent almost four hours on the south side of the lake today where we found the heaviest activity.

Best,

Dennis
