Backyard HOUSE WREN, YELLOW WARBLER, BLACK-THROATED GREEN WARBLER, and
ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK were the impetus for a quick pre-work walk through a
corner of Wakefield Park. The area was only moderately birdy, highlights
being a single LINCOLNS SPARROW, and a RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRD chasing a
crow (Im not sure the crow even noticed it was being pursued).
