In the spirit of the 2012 Spring migration I thought id share that I had a lone
BLACK & WHITE WARBLER along the edge of Franklin Pond at around noon.
I pulled in real quick to scan the pond when my eye caught a warbler flying in
from the north. Lucky for me it decided to land right next to me at eye level.
The bird presented excellent views and eventually continued south.
Not much else of note of other than a transitioning Yellow-rumped Warbler, an
Osprey, Great-blue Heron, Eastern Phoebe and 5 Ring-necked Ducks.
Just a note for the record that Franklin Pond's perimeter is all Private Road.
Part of the Greenbelt skirts the wetland that located at the ponds south end.
Best,
Derek Rogers
