Hi all,
There were a few migrants in Sapsucker Woods, mostly around the Sherwood
Platform. There was a mixed flock of BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER, RED-EYED
VIREO, WARBLING VIREO, HOUSE WREN and COMMON YELLOWTHROATS. There were also
a few BALTIMORE ORIOLES hanging around.

I'll add to Dave's highlight...I showed up late as the fog was lifting,
about 9:30am. I arrived as three SAND HILL CRANES flew from behind me,
calling loudly, and over me, exhilarating but too fast for me to get my
camera in position! I then saw 10 LESSER DOWITCHERS and yellowlegs. I
watched
Correction: I meant SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHER, not Lesser.Is it obvious
that I misspoke? If I had said LESSER YELLOWLEGS but meant
SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHER, then I think a correction is necessary; but if it
is a mis-speak, then what is the listserve protocol: post a correction
or let it go?
There were several Common Yellowthroats, a Black-and -White Warbler, and a
Blackburnian Warbler in Sapsucker this morning.
