It seems the Catharus thrushes are enjoying the Virginia creeper berries at the 
sanctuary. Unfortunately that means they are often close to the tree tops. I 
found three just towards the meeting deck from the north overlook, but did not 
have a good enough look at any of them to bring down to species. Luckily two of 
them came back and showed themselves to be one each of Swainsons and Gray 
cheeked.
Also seen today was a a Yellow bellied flycatcher. This one was in the middle 
of one of the Gray’s willow thickets inside the boardwalk just back from the 
Stowe overlook.

eBird report with some photos in the link below.
