[birdky] BKY: kayak birds at Jonathan Creek

Kayaking in the back creeks of Jonathan today I was jolted by the frequent 
staccato of the White-eyed Vireo.  They called at every bend.

A mother Wood Duck and 12 fresh hatched chicks speeded along the water in 
front of my hot pink kayak.  She was brave and never flew unlike the 10 or 
so other males that scattered into the air before me.  Another mother had 6 
chicks, and she too stood her course.

I managed to cut down at least a dozen jug lines with hooks and also 
witnessed two Nashville Warblers,  one Catbird, one Osprey, three Purple 
Martins and lots of Tree Swallows plus other usuals.

Seems to me that the Indigo Buntings and the Yellow-billed Cuckoos are 
missing???
