Hi --

Quite a few birders out at Riley's Locks (Seneca) this morning. The highlight for many was the cooperative Prothonotary Warbler and 2-3 Yellow-throated Warblers  near the turning basin, but other species of interest included Louisiana Waterthrush (3-4), Parula (5) and Palm Warbler (1), a Common Loon in full breeding plumage, Horned Grebe, Red-breasted Merg, Phoebes, Ruby-crowned Kinglets, Gnatcatchers and about 20 or so Yellow-rumps.

At Hughes Hollow, scores of Tree Swallows, two FOY Green Herons, and a distant Red-headed Woodpecker were the highlights.
