20+ birders gathered on this chilly morning for the second of the four fall
migration Wednesday walks at Radnor Lake State Park in Davidson County.
While we saw a number of Warblers, perhaps the most interesting sightings
of the day were the large flocks of Cedar Waxwings and Chimney Swifts near
the ranger house area.
The following is a list of species observed throughout the morning.
