I ran into Dan Small and Maren Gimpel. They arrived before I did and
had a few more things than I did but I managed a few goodies before
going in to work. Perhaps most notable was a Nashville warbler singing
and seen poorly in the swamp by the 2nd bridge (Dan & Maren mentioned
one too in a different spot). The Red-breasted Nuthatch is interesting
too. I don't think they nest here (but I could be wrong). The Northern
Waterthrushes are back.
