Kind of quiet this morning, except for the mosquitoes droning in your ears.
Spent the early part of the AM around the ruins at Leesylvania, with a brief
stop around the beaver dam. Highlights were a juvie male Rose-breasted
Grosbeak, a Veery, and an early [?] Yellow-rumped W. I was at Metz only for a
half-hour, as the mosquitoes were driving me nuts. Highlights were
Ruby-crowned Kinglet and an Ovenbird (late leaving?).
