Beautiful fall morning with some cloud cover. Bunker Pond held many Mute Swans with one Black Swan. We also saw a Belted Kingfisher, Yellow-rumped Warblers working in the bayberry with some Palm Warblers and Swamp Sparrows. There were raptors overhead including Peregrine Falcon, Merlin, Sharp-shinned, Cooper's, and Broad-winged Hawks, Osprey, and Northern Harriers. Leaders: Chuck Slugg and Warren Cairo.
