Bristol Birders,
   
  I made a quick trip to the Breaks this morning.  New birds for 2006 for me 
included Ovenbirds (5), Blue-Gray Gnatcatchers (4), and Brown Thrashers (2).  
Others warblers included Black-throated Green Warblers, Black & White Warblers, 
and Yellow-throated Warblers.  I was half expecting a Hooded but no luck yet.
   
  I got a quick glimpse of a female merganser on Laurel Lake - think it may 
have been a Hooded Merganser.  Also got a great look at a Cooper's Hawk sitting 
above the road.  A single Coot is still on the lake and a Red-shouldered Hawk 
was heard.
