What a difference 2 days make.  This morning was completely different
from Wednesday.  There was essentially nothing at the dam, but I did
find several nice flock on my walk along the Lake Trail to Long 
Bridge and back.  Unlike Wednesday when TENNESSEE WARBLERs were 
numerous, the dominant warbler today was AMERICAN REDSTART.  In fact 
I did NOT see any TENNESSEEs today.  All together, I found 8 species
of warblers, the best of which was my first GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLER
of the year.  Also seen were YELLOW-BILLED CUCKOO, WHITE-EYED and
RED-EYED and WARBLING VIREOs, as well as SWAINSON'S THRUSH and 
SUMMER TANAGER.

Birds of interest included:
Wood Duck 17
Yellow-billed Cuckoo 1
Swainson's Thrush 3
Brown Thrasher 1
Cedar Waxwing -- heard
White-eyed Vireo 3
Red-eyed Vireo 1

Magnolia Warbler 4
