There was good bird activity this morning at Lake Needwood despite it
being cloudy and humid. I saw 9 different warblers, including a
Blackburnian, my first of the year. Two Red-breasted Nuthatches were
heard near Needwood Mansion and the Dogwood Trail and possibly one of
the same or a different bird was heard on the upper part of the golf
course that borders Lake Needwood park. The eBird list is below
