The constantly shifting skies seemed to keep activity going well into 
the morning this a.m. I sat out from around 7:30 to 9:30 and caught 
quick glimpses of some interesting passersby:

The stars of the show were 4-8 alt. plumage common loons that flew 
low overhead, headed roughly north.

Visitors to the backyard maple and ashes included:

eastern kingbird (1 overhead)
blue-headed vireo (1-2)
yellow-rumped warbler (3-6)
yellow warbler (1)
scarlet tanager (1)
rose-breasted grosbeak (1)
Baltimore oriole (1)
eastern towhee (1)
