Howdy All! Migrants are trickling in. Today was Nashville Warbler Day. They were at every stop I made and they were singing their hearts out. 58 species in just a couple of hours isn't bad. This Saturday, April 19th we are going to have our morning bird tour. It will begin at 8:15am and we'll meet at the park HQ and go check out the birdier places in the park. I will also be scouting to see what is moving on the mornings of the 17th and 18th . You are welcome to join me on either one of those mornings, or both.
