I saw a single Tufted Titmouse in the thickets along the Avon River in the TJ Dolan Natural Area in Stratford this morning. There was little sign of warbler activity with 3 yellow-rumps being the only ones seen. Large numbers of American Robins were feeding on the abundant berry crop and flocks of Blue Jays were moving around. Some of the birds seen:

Eastern Phoebe              3
Tufted Titmouse            1
Blue Jay                        60+
Ameriacn Robin              40+
Swamp Sparrow             1
White-throated Sparrow 20+

The TJ Dolan Natural Area straddles the Avon River on the west side of Stratford. There is a parking lot with a map on John Street at Centre Street. The TUTI was near the main trail about 300 m west of the parking lot.
