Hey guys and gals,

A couple of us young birders went down to Johnson Rd. and beyond in the Nassawango Creek area, as well as Elliot's Island Rd, for the full day yesterday.  It was nice to get out on a lovely spring day, and to refresh and review the many migrants we encountered. 
Okay, numbers included 3 vireo species, 11 warbler species, and 8 shorebird species.  A full list of our outing is seen below, excluding species seen casually elsewhere:
