Despite the beautiful weather, there was not a large quantity of birds at Wood Lake this morning. *Quality*, however, was high. Highlights included:
Forster's Tern Belted Kingfisher Pied-billed Grebe Hooded Merganser Wood Duck Great Blue Heron Green Heron Yellow-rumped Warbler Palm Warbler Black-and-White Warbler Northern Waterthrush 3 Ovenbirds! Warbling Vireo Swamp Sparrow White-throated Sparrow Chipping Sparrow Song Sparrow Savannah Sparrow Field Sparrow Clay-colored Sparrow Bobolink!
