Hi Peter,
It was a beautiful day today, with a strong enough breeze to combat any heat other than in the most exposed spots.
There were a lot of birds in the park, many very early in the season for that species.
Highlights: On the raptor front, Bald Eagle (probably 5th year bird, still a subadult), Black and Turkey Vultures.
On the flycatcher front: 7 species including Olive-sided, Yellow-bellied, Acadian and Least.
On the warbler front (lots of fronts...) Prairie, a very early Blackpoll, Nashville; 13 species total
Other notables: Winter Wren, Gray-cheeked Thrush (very early???), and Pied-billed Grebe.
Here's the list.
Everyone, please let us know if I've missed anything.
Best regards,
Tom
