We spent a cloudy and quiet late morning Monday at the park. In addition to 
our target species, RED-HEADED WOODPECKER, we had other '07 firsts: 
CHIPPING SPARROW (didn't need to leave the car for these), BROWN CREEPER 
(2), WINTER WREN (finally!), and BROWN THRASHER. 

A state first for us was a pair of BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHERS. Other recent 
arrivals were numerous PINE WARBLERS and EASTERN PHOEBES and a flock of 
NORTHERN ROUGH-WINGED SWALLOWS.

A quick pass through Solomon's found nothing unusual except for the number 
of AMERICAN COOTS (scores). There were many LESSER SCAUP, some 
BUFFLEHEADS and MALLARDS, two LONG-TAILED DUCKS, three SURF SCOTERS 
on the river, and five or six HORNED GREBES across the street.
