Hi all,

  Made a short bike trip this morning to look for migrants and local birds.  The only warblers I got onto were Black thrt Green and Black thrt Blue.  Still lots of Robins and Northern Flickers
in the area.  Only 1 Catbird.  The majority seemed to have left last week.

Rock Creek Park, Knowles Ave to Dewey Rd.

Black thrt Green Warbler 1 (female, feeding on a HUGE Caterpillar. She sat on a branch beating it on a limb for 5 minutes.)
Black thrt Blue 1
Golden crowned Kinglet 2
Carolina Wren 3
Downy Woodpecker 3
Red winged Blackbirds 8
Song Sparrow 2
American Goldfinch 4
Turkey Vulture   2
Red bellied Woodpecker 2
Northern Cardinal 4
Blue jay (small groups 8-10)
