Bristol Birders

Tonight while birding at Steele Creek Park I ran into to Kevin Hamed and =
we observed a dozen Common Nighthawks woking over the lake at dusk.

Prior to my encounter with Kevin I saw at least 6 Pine Warblers chasing =
each other two by two in the upper parking area across from the golf =
clubhouse.

 I was fortunate to ID a new bird to my park list in the evergreen tree =
in the grassland - the Tennessee Warbler!
Only one was seen with a group of 5 Chipping Sparrows.

Others present in good numbers (10 or more) included: E. Bluebirds, C. =
Geese, Mallards, Chimney Swifts, M. Doves, Blue Jays and passing flocks =
of Starlings.

In smaller numbers (less than 10) were: C. Chickadees, A. Robins, =
White-breasted Nuthatches and A. Goldfinches.

Also, singly noted: N. Flicker
