I went for my first Radnor Lake "Wednesday Walk" of the season.  If you
were looking for YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLERs, today was the day for you!
I was never out range of their dry chip note.  However, the only
other warbler I heard was a LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH.  A large number of 
GOLDEN-CROWNED KINGLETs, 2 WINTER WRENs, 2 BROWN CREEPERs were other 
highlights of the morning.  Water birds were migrating through as well.

Other sightings included 2 otters diving in different places near the
shore.  Beaver handiwork was in evidence but not the beaver.

Avian species of interest included:

Pied-billed Grebe 4
Wood Duck 8
Mallard 2
Ring-necked Duck 10+
Bufflehead 18
Hooded Merganser 1
American Coot 1
Eastern Phoebe 1
Brown Creeper 2
Winter Wren 2
Golden-crowned Kinglet 16+
Ruby-crowned Kinglet 2
Brown Thrasher 1
Yellow-rumped Warbler 60+
Louisiana Waterthrush 1
