Morning all,
 I just came in from a quick (well, not too quick, it's HOT out there) walk around the yard. Nice finds included (in no particular order) singing Grasshopper Sparrow (wonder if he ever found a mate?), a flock of 14 (or maybe 15) Great Egrets flying from west to east, headed towards Piney Run Reservoir (my largest number of these seen here), a singing Indigo Bunting, House Wren fledgling, Eastern Kingbird, and lots of fledged E. Bluebirds. And something calling from the edge of the far woods which sounded like a Common Moorhen, but I haven't a clue what it might have been. Weird sound though...
