Hello all,
I spent a few hours this morning birding Delaware Wildlife area (and
getting rained on a bit), and it was a fairly birdy place. There were
good numbers of birds in the thickets, though nothing like the late
yellowthroat I was hoping for. I turned up 45 species, with a single
flyover Snow Bunting (SNBU) and 6 Lapland Longspurs (LALO) being the
highlights. A harrier was nice too, along with 12 Hooded Mergansers
and 2 pintail.
