Kayaking Blood River and Jonathan Creek yesterday:

Jonathan Creek:  Adult Yellow-crowned night heron and juvenile
                           Cliff swallows in their mud jugs under the 
bridge on #80
                            A family of Wood ducks, the young ones 
squealing and flapping on top of the water ahead of my boat.

Blood River:         Two Little Blue Herons
                            Green-back Heron
                            One Lesser Scaup that can't fly

Most numerous were White-eyed Vireos, Gnatcatchers, Indigo Buntings, N. 
Parulas, and Yellow-billed Cuckoos.  It seems that there are less Red-eyed 
Vireos.  I have no data to prove that but are they decreasing in 
numbers?  Not as many Prothonatary warblers either;  however, I think their 
nests got washed away in the high water.
