At Pilot Knob SP in Hancock County this morning, a few migrant
songbirds were still present. These included an Alder Flycatcher, two
Yellow-bellied Flycatchers, a Swainson's Thrush, a Black-and-white
Warbler, and several Chestnut-sided Warblers. Local birds included
two Black-billed Cuckoos, a singing Veery, three Cerulean Warblers
along the road, five Ovenbirds, and six Scarlet Tanagers.
At Crystal Hills, about 500 shorebirds still line the edges of the
ponds. Largest was a single Black-bellied Plover.
