Another Wednesday walk around Radnor Lake produced a nice variety of
winter holdovers and spring arrivals.  YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERs remain
the dominant species, but I had 4 other warbler species, NORTHERN
PARULA, BLACK-THROATED GREEN and YELLOWTHROATED WARBLERs, as well as
a LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH.  Numbers of GOLDEN-CROWNED KINGLETs 
remained high, and a lone WINTER WREN was found.  Several CHIMNEY SWIFTS 
were in the air, a nice reprise of my first sighting of the year, which I 
had yesterday evening from my home in SW Nashville.  Lingering waterfowl, 
BUFFLEHEAD, BLUE-WINGED TEAL, PIED-BILLED GREBE, and AMERICAN COOT, 
continue brief visits.
