Hi Folks,
At a minimum: the loon arrived two weeks ago and we tried to
capture it but instead we drove it down stream; it came back to the pol
just below the road culvert and was photographed by Melissa Groo; it
went away but on Sat morning (30 April), I saw it in the culvert outflow
I will post photos of the vireo tonight. It was moving towards the south
end of the spruces when I left, still singing.
The spruces had lots of other warblers as well, most of which were too quick
and obscured for me to get on. There were at least 60 (probably hundreds)
of Yellow-rumped

This morning as I was leaving Dodge Road after successfully seeing and hearing
Jay's WHITE-EYED VIREO, I turned onto Stevenson Road and headed toward Turkey
Hill. Just as I was passing the compost piles a large bird came flying past at
a high rate of speed, at just a bit above tree-top level.
