I walked from Needwood Mansion to the bridge at Needwood Road for a
few hours this morning. I got good looks at a beautiful Golden-Winged
Warbler adult male as it foraged in the River Birch along the roadside
near the bridge. That's a life bird for me. It was joined by another
warbler, likely a Pine but not certain. With the cool dry breeze, it
made for a great morning walk. The full eBird list is below.
