Eastern Kingbirds dotted the fields on this morning's Higbee walk, while Indigo Buntings decorated the edges. The number of warblers has dropped but the variety is still good, with eight species seen or heard - nine, if you still include Yellow-breasted Chat. Those of us doing the World Series of Birding this weekend were really glad to see Purple Sandpipers still on the rock jetty since that's a species often missed if they've left for breeding grounds far north of here. Leaders: Kathy Horn, Roger Horn, Catherine Busch, Chris Marks, and Warren Cairo.
