It was (finally!) a
beautiful, warm spring day, and the park was busy with many recent migrants.
The group enjoyed close looks at singing songbirds including Yellow, Pine,
Prairie and Yellow-rumped Warblers. We also had decent looks at White-eyed
Vireo, Blue Grosbeak, a single Black-throated Green Warbler. A recent movement
of swallows afforded us the opportunity to see the differences between Purple
Martin, and Tree, Barn and Cliff Swallows. A few were fortunate to see a startled
Virginia Rail briefly before it scurried off into the marsh.
