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.
