The woods was fairly good for early spring. I saw a Swamp Sparrow, several Ruby-crowned Kinglets, one Golden-crowned Kinglet. The Hermit Thrushes are starting to move through. ( I saw 2.) Brown Creepers were abundant, 2 Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers, several Yellow-rumped Warblers, a Turkey Vulture, Flickers, a Hairy Woodpecker, which I find less often, and all the usual suspects. I noticed many Red Admiral butterflies. The spring wildflowers are all out in abundance. The Garlic Mustard is advancing steadily. For a while Seminary Woods was relatively free of this terrible weed. I try to pull what I can but my knees at my age are not any help! If anyone cares to pull any, at this time when it is not in flower yet, you may still hold it back somewhat. Cheers!
