Hello all.

I walked the wetland area at Swan Creek this morning and found a few birds of note.

Highlights:

Green-winged Teal: 2 flyover
Wood Duck: 3 old wetland
Little Blue Heron: 7    3 adult, 4 white imm
Great Egret: 1
Belted Kingfisher
SORA: 1 seen and photographed...with my phone. Pure luck for me, as it was actrively foraging and never seemed to notice me. The bird was 12 feet from me for about 15 minutes. First small visible wet area on the left side of the road between the wetlands. About 65 paces from the platform. 
Chimney Swift
Hairy woodpecker: 1
Tree Swallow
NASHVILLE WARBLER: 1  At the edge of the mitigated wetland scrub.
Myrtle Warbler: 12+
Eastern Towhee
Song Sparrow: 25+
Swamp Sparrow: 8
White-throated Sparrow: 6
Junco: 1
