West Creek was pretty awesome today...definitely the
best birding of the year to this point. 16 warbler
and 5 vireo species were observed, and plenty of other
migrants to go with them. Highlights: PINE and
CERULEAN WARBLERS, and an extremely cooperative parula
that I din't have to break my neck to see, as well as
a nice group of Purple Finches. Wacky encounters:
Solitary Sandpiper at a puddle in the middle of the
woods and a Green Heron flushed from the meadow.
