With the southerly winds for much of this past week and besides scattered
pockets of migrants, many areas of both Carver Park and the arboretum were much
quieter during the week. With the recent frontal passage, the arboretum was
once again active this morning. Though if you are not careful, you can easily
miss the birds as they silently forage in and out view. There were also more
flighty warblers than usual today that went unidentified.
