Hey everyone-
I headed out to Cromwell around 1pm today for what I thought would be a short outing- I ended up staying for close to 4 hours. There were birds everywhere. At the spot where the Willow Grove entrance road crosses over Minebank Run, I had 13 warbler species, 4 species of Flycatcher, and two Philly Vireos, without moving. Total, I had 16 species of warbler, although in three hours spent exploring every weedy part of the park, I could pull out no oporornis species. Still, an awesome day, even with the constant rain.
