Highlight was a blue-winged warbler - it is being seen in the meadow that leads to the river trail. Also seen were a female wood duck with her ducklings on the lake, a warbling vireo where it could be seen high in a tree, blue birds, and summer tanagers
more common birds included tufted titmouse, Canada geese, mallards, chipping sparrows, grackles, soaring turkey vultures, one flying great-blue heron, a robin, a male house finch
birds heard: red-bellied woodpeckers, blue jays, wood-pewees, Carolina chickadees, white-breasted nuthatches, red-winged blackbirds, a catbird, an eastern towhee, Baltimore orioles, and lots of vireos, mostly red-eyed but probably some yellow-breasted (I still have trouble distinguishing the phrase-singing vireos)
