Hi all,

Birded Eastern Neck yesterday morning from 0822-1145. There were very few migrants around and only ran into one nice flock of birds (mostly made up of Bluebirds, Brown-headed Nuthatches and Chickadees) on Boxes Point Trail during my time there. Migrant landbird highlights were 3 American Redstarts, 2 Black and White Warblers and 4 Trails Flycatchers. I hung just south of the bridge looking for raptors to the north but had no luck other than the very numerous Turkey vultures, Bald Eagles and Ospreys. 

On a side note, there was a flock of 130 Fish Crows lazily heading south and no doubt causing trouble midday today along the Chester River.

Now that I've just learned of the Scissor-tail I off to chase it.
