No luck in finding them but we did turn up 1 LINCOLN'S SPARROW. There were 40+ SONG SPARROWS and a couple FIELD. The most abundant species were INDIGO BUNTINGS with an estimated 60+. The few raptors we found were exciting. A 7 a.m. NORTHERN HARRIER and a MERLIN (found yesterday also) being harassed by jays. Very few warblers but we did have a flyover BLACK-THROATED GREEN and the usual MAGNOLIA and REDSTART.
