On Mon was at the DE beaches, at the intersection of the DE 36 (I think  
that's the #, the road from Route 1 to Slaughter Beach) and the road to the  
Mispillion light house we stopped to look at a warbler and heard a  bobwhite over 
and over.  Very strange habitat and sounded a little  off.  Could have been a 
mimic, but there was no other song given by a  mockingbird, etc for a least ten 
minutes.  Heard it on the way out too. Has  anyone heard this bird on your 
horseshoe crab/shorebird outings this year?
