One silent but cooperative Yellow-throated warbler and one singing (and seen) Northern Waterthrush this morning at Blockhouse Point. Between Violette's Lock and BP, N.Parulas & Prothonotaries, Great-crested and Acadian Flycatchers, one RT Hummingbird, Indigo Buntings, Orchard Orioles singing but hiding. We flushed 2 female Wood Ducks on the river at Violette's when we first arrived, each with 5-6 young.

Happy summer birding,
