I went to the Jetty Woods north of Newman golf course this morning from 9 until 11. Beautiful shirt-sleeve weather with no wind. I saw 23 species including 4 warblers. The best for me was a blue-winged warbler, first time I have found it myself. I spent 15 minutes trying to locate a singing warbler. I knew it was close, I searched every tree and bush, and finally found it down by the water, a norther waterthrush. Every spring I have to relearn my bird songs. Another cool thing was seeing a pair of wood ducks land in a tree.
