which flew in and hawked insects over the main wetland area viewable from the
boardwalk
Other birds of note:
Many singing Yellowthroats; Yellow Warbler; Savannah Sparrow; 25 Rusty
Blackbirds; Cooper's, Red-shouldered & Red-tailed Hawks; 9 Solitary Sandpipers;
5 Semi-palmated Plovers; 3 Grtr Yellowlegs; 10 Lesser Yellowlegs; 3 Least
Sandpipers; 2 Killdeer; 10 Barn, 50 Tree, 3 Rough-winged & 1 Bank Swallows and
2 Purple Martins.
A very pleasant morning.
