Hi all,
A decent morning at Governor Bridge Natural Area in Prince George's county. Highlights were a Canada Warbler, Gray-cheeked Thrush, and 2 Bay-breasted Warblers. The two singing male Bay-Breasteds were especially nice since I missed them last spring. One was extremely cooperative singing just 15 feet up on an exposed branch. I didn't have my camera, but ended up with a nice recording on my phone that might be good enough to throw up on xenocanto or something. Anyway, good birding!
