It was quite a happening morning on the Lower Kingman and Heritage islands
on the Anacostia River. In all, eight species of warbler were sighted.
Highlights were a singing Wood Thrush, a singing Ovenbird, and a vocal
Northern Waterthrush. A small group of Baltimore Orioles was observed with 3
adult males and a female.
