Bird was seen perched near the rink , flew up towards Breeze Hill
Kingsboider note: I searched the area after work which proved unsuccessful but it was hot then. The Breeze Hill lawn and perimeter is a terrific spot to look.There are large dirt mounds infested with thick weeds so that's a good spot for good birds especially sparrows in the coming weeks. IN one of the mounds this afternoon, 3 Magnolia Warblers, RC Kinglet, Black-throated Blue Warbler female , House Wren --all on one mound , along the drive on the south edge of the Breeze Hill meadow. Good Luck, keep me posted.

Hi Peter,
We had another good group today of about 16-17 people. It took some time, once again, but we finally squeezed out some good species including 20 species of warblers (including Blackburnian that Adam had on his walk out), Willow Flycatcher, 2 Yellow-billed Cuckoos, and more.
Here's the list.
Best regards,
Tom
