Also noted, Bobi Manian reported EASTERN KINGBIRD , likely the season's first, at the Peninsula "pink" concrete beach ( midafternoon)
I saw two GADWALL on the lake.

From Russ:
Nothing new but I observed 24 Turkey Vultures from the lily pond bridge circling above the long meadow/ravine area for just a minute before flying off to the NE. Common?
