Thought maybe the winds after the rains would keep the
birds low, but I saw very few.  However, on the path
from the visitor's center to Thoreau Lake, just after
the first bench, on the north side of the path, I
heard an unusual (to me) song.  I tried for about 20
min. to get a look at the singer to no avail.  After I
returned to my car and checked my birdsong tapes, I'm
pretty sure it might have been a Kirtland's song.
Nothing else on the tape was close to what I heard.
With that possibility, I returned to the spot and
stayed a while, but the bird never sang again.  If
anyone happens to be at Blendon, keep an ear/eye out
for this bird.

I did see a Great Blue Heron and Green Heron at the
pond, and a Canada Warbler skulking low not far from
the feeder at the south blind.
