We started out quiet as rain pulled away, but there were a few areas where small groups of birds were present. Ovenbird and Northern Waterthrush were in the first wet woods, feeding on the ground. Nice looks at both Orioles, and what appeared to be a family of 4-5 Blue Grosbeaks. Thirteen Wood Ducks, both male and female not in breeding plumage, were a surprise on the willow pond. Leaders: Karl Lukens, Kathy & Roger Horn, Catherine Busch, Chris Marks, and Carrie Bell.
