Ed Crowne reported KENTUCKY WARBLER in the southwestern section of the Midwood, calling persistently after 8 am. Scott Whittle went later and heard it called twice but was unable to see the secretive bird as it was moving around a wide area in the Midwood.
The weather as you know turned for the better, a southern warm front that should bring greater improvement to migrants our way as the migration enters the home stretch. I was wise enough at the last moment to ask my boss for the day off Wedenesday....
more later,
Kingsboider
