["Houghton, Tim" <Tim.Houghton@xxxxxxx>]

Ben Albritton and I had a very enjoyable time birding this area altho the activity was very average (and minus any uncommon warblers) for this time of year. I'm wondering if the days--for this area--of major activity have already slipped by me or if the big days will be coming up this week or if there are destined not be any big days for this area this spring. Who knows. But it was fun, and with hard work we got a decent amount of stuff. About 85 species, with some highlights below:

 

black vulture

sharp-tailed hawk

broad-winged hawk

red-shouldered hawk

yellow-billed cuckoo (2)

acadian flycatcher (2)
