I met Tom and Ed Patten at Blue Mash as I walked the trail in the opposite 
direction.  Additional highlights from my walk include a Double-crested 
Cormorant at the large pond, a singing Yellow-throated Warbler, 24 Eastern 
Towhee, 10 Field Sparrow (thanks to Tom and Ed for helping me identify the 
song!), and 2 Swamp Sparrow.
