Today is a marvellous day for swallow watching. I saw lots of swallows
everywhere I went and all of them were flying low and slow in a most
cooperative fashion. This morning (7:30-9:15) at Stewart Park I saw (in
order of frequency) TREE, BARN, BANK, NORTHERN ROUGH-WINGED, and PURPLE
MARTINS.
I was wondering about the Cliff Swallows. I also noticed they seemed to range
farther out over the water and especially much higher up. Sometime very high
and then dive down in bigger loops.

I was by the swan pond looking for warblers (there were at least 2 PALM
WARBLERS - 1 yellow, 1 brown)
when I met Sydney who said he'd just seen 3 terns flying east. I tried scoping
and found nothing in the
limited clear view north to the fog. Then a few minutes later he saw terns
again.
