Yesterday, Jeanne and I birded from the Old Cedar Bridge area to the Bass Ponds. Today we birded at Spring Lake Park and Lebanon Hills, scouting for trips we will be leading tomorrow and Sunday mornings. We are starting to see some of the warblers but we had to work for them. Some of the birds we saw are as follows:
