A walk at Radnor Lake this morning in the crisp clear weather was 
a real treat.  Phillip Casteel and I wandered ahead of the substantial
NTOS Wednesday walk flotilla, which eventually caught up to us at
Long Bridge.  Activity was spread out, and we had to dig hard at times
to find different species.  Nevertheless, we ended with 9 warbler and
4 vireo species, before I fully retraced my steps to the west parking
lot and headed for work, where I made final preparations for tomorrow's 
business trip to Tucson, AZ.  The best bird of the day was an 
ALDER FLYCATCHER, while looks at 2 GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLERs and a 
YELLOW-THROATED VIREO, found by Jan Shaw, also left me with a smile
on face.  Chatting briefly with birding friends for the first time in 
several months helped to brighten the morning.
