Second and last day of my conference - I checked out the pubs on Pratt St.
between Howard St. and Hopkins Place after getting off the train.  This
morning there were two Ovenbirds, and one decided to sing a bit.  The
Catbirds were also present and the White-throated Sparrows were singing.  A
Mockingbird had joined the group.

Around 5pm on my walk back to the Light Rail I decided to stop and check on
the birds again.  One Ovenbird was seen, 2 Catbirds, and a male Common
Yellowthroat was hanging around some decorative grasses closer to Pratt
Street while a dreadful traffic jam inched along.
