I walked Leonard Rd. and Bald Hill School Rd.(state forest part, town of Caroline) early today. Heard a BLUE-HEADED VIREO along Leonard. Listened to it for a while; finally got a visual; it was in a tall treetop and the breast looked like the morning star in the rising sun. I've taken this walk twice in the past week and have recorded 1 YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER each time. Today there were 14 in about a 2-mile stretch of woods.
Also in the 2 earlier walks, there have been 2 WINTER WRENS each time-today I saw 4. The odd thing is I have yet to hear a winter wren song from this location.
