Spectacular day of birding highlighted by a SCARLET TANAGER taking a bath, BLACK THROATED GREEN, CHESTNUT SIDED and INDIGO BUNTING. A ROSE BREASTED GROSBEAK landed right in front of us with an insect in its beak. For the most part, the birds were eye level making it a wonderful bird walk for the 44 birders.
