Our Friends' Walk started with over 30 birders including visitors Dorte and Leo from Sweden, and ended 7 hours later with a hardy group of three.  We tallied 71 species including 21 warbler species on a very birdy day.  Highlights included a probable Mourning Warbler seen by Terry, an Olive-sided Flycatcher and White-eyed Vireo in the Vale, and a very cooperative Worm-eating Warbler seen along the path behind the Upper Pool.
