While volunteering @ Blendon Woods, several other birders and I saw several phoebes AND peewees @ the east observation shelter @ the lake. Wild turkeys were seen several times during the day in the refuge area, and there were several pairs of bluebirds at the nesting boxes just west of the observation shelters. I also saw a lone female purple finch at the feeders at the Nature Center. Waterfowl numbers were down.
