P.S. While I was photographing the Waterthrush I again briefly saw the
Solitary Sandpiper at the same location (fly by upstream). A friend also
saw it earlier in the day (Saturday May 11). He also says he saw a Canada
Warbler but I did not ask where.
Also, on Friday May 10 I saw and photo'd a White-crowned Sparrow, foraging
on the Blue Trail with 8 Chipping Sparrows, just before it opens into the
field before Sherwood Bridge. I looked for it yesterday but did not see
that flock on the trail. Bobolinks were still present just before sunset
yesterday (Sat)
Have not had a chance to enter any of this on eBird.

Subject: Northern Waterthrush at Cromwell Valley (??)
I photographed a Waterthrush at Cromwell Valley yesterday afternoon during
that thunderstorm (don't ask).
I think this is a NORTHERN WATERTHRUSH? I'd like some confirmation on my
ID:

Also thought it would be of interest since, if it is a Northern, none have
been reported yet at CVP this year on eBird.
The bird was on and around the large snaggy deadfall in Minebank Run, about
100 feet west of the deadfall across the stream behind Box 8. It hung
around there for an hour or so.
