Radnor Lake (Davidson Co.) was quite birdy this morning with a lot of
transients evident.  I spent a couple of hours walking to Long Bridge and
back with Chuck and Lola Estes and Tom Johnston and we also bumped into Bob
Ingle, Terry Witt, Chad Smith, and Kevin Bowden at various points along the
way, as well as a couple of folks I didn't know.

The highlight was a singing CONNECTICUT WARBLER fairly deep off the trail
just past bench 19.  We heard it give two song cycles of 3-4 songs each,
with several minutes passing between each cycle.  It would be very, very
easy to walk by and never hear it.  We were just lucky to be in the right
place at the right time.

Overall, we had 17 species of warblers, including a good number of CANADAS,
lots of BLACKPOLLS, a few BAY-BREASTEDS, and a singing CERULEAN below the
old ranger station.  The complete list is below.
