7-9 am

From the west parking lot I walked around the lake this lovely but
brisk Monday morning.  YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERS remained the most 
numerous species although I did manage to find 7 different kinds
of warblers today, a positive harbinger for the first of the 
NTOS Wednesday walks that will begin in 2 days.  Highlight was a 
singing male PROTHONOTARY WARBLER, my first one for the year.  
RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETs outnumbered GOLDEN-CROWNED and a lone HERMIT 
THRUSH was a nice find.  Some waterfowl continue to come through.
A BLUE JAY circling and swooping down to peck at the head of an 
immature RED-TAILED HAWK that was sitting at the top of a tree was
an interesting diversion.

Birds of interest included:
Pied-billed Grebe 4
Wood Duck 5
Blue-winged Teal 5
Ring-necked Duck 3
Golden-crowned Kinglet 1
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 6
Hermit Thrush 1
