There was a lone Black-necked Stilt at the Shorebird Unit of the Sloughs 
(Henderson County) this morning, along with lots of Yellowlegs (both, but 
mostly Lesser), Pecs, and Snipe and a few Solitaries. Also had FOY House Wren.

Stopped briefly at Audubon State Park to look for probable early Worm-eating 
Warbler I heard on March 30 (99% sure, but couldn't get visual confirmation. 
Textbook song and perfect habitat, but can't completely rule out the 
possibility of a particularly diabolical and out-of-place chipping sparrow). No 
success with the Worm-eater, but did get FOY Orange-crowned. 

On March 30 at Audubon also had FOY Palm Warbler, Parula, and Black-throated 
Green. (The Yellow-throateds and Louisiana Waterthrushes have been back for a 
while--had my first Waterthrush at Audubon on Mar. 19 and first Yellow-throated 
on Mar. 25). 

The number of Yellow-rumpeds has exploded in the last couple days.
