the birds were singing everywhere. We saw and/or heard nine species of warblers
including Worm-eating (Breeds), Blue-winged (B), Black-throated Blue, Am.

70 Red Knots--most in full breeding plumage
5 Ruddy Turnstones (max

Hi All,
John Wittenberg called to say he and Gaile Newman just had a Kentucky
