Had a great morning at Wood Lake today. With some help from Connie Brunnell (sp?) and Leslie Marcus, I was able to find 14 warbler species as well as many other good birds (including a Virginia Rail foraging out in plain view).
Warblers: Yellow-rumped, Black-and-white, Black-throated Green, Orange-crowned, Nashville, Tennessee, Parula, N. Waterthrush, Palm, Wilson's, Redstart, Yellow, Ovenbird, and a surprise singing Golden-winged in the NE part of the nature center. Sparrows: Chipping, Clay-colored, Lincoln's, Swamp, Song Vireos: Blue-headed, Warbling Others: Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Northern Oriole, Least Flycatcher, Swainson's Thrush, Great Egret, Virginia Rail, plus many others.
