I haven't seen any postings today (Friday, 9/2) on bird sightings at 
the area of Rock Creek Park near the Nature Center that is so popular 
with birders during migration season.

However, I received a call yesterday, 9/1, from Jim Leonard, who 
reported that he and others had seen a Brewster's Warbler (that's the 
Golden Winged/Blue-winged hybrid with a dark line across the face and 
golden wingbar(s).  This was early a.m. Thursday at the "Maintenance 
Yard," the overgrown area behind the NPS Maintenance Yard proper 
where the NPS stores some materials.  Jim said that this bird was 
notably yellow in overall coloration.

Sorry to be a day late posting this.  Weather forecasts for the next 
few days indicate wind and sky conditions very favorable to 
migration, so Rock Creek Park in DC might be the right place to be.

See you there, maybe!
