Friday at Radnor Lake the birds fit the weather.  Although  there were
plenty of neotropical migrants still coming through, the door opened
substantially for wintering birds as well.  I only had 6 warbler species
but in addition to nearly 3 dozen YELLOW-RUMPEDs, there were still very
good numbers of TENNESSEE, BLACK-THROATED GREEN, and BAY-BREASTED
WARBLERs.  Single birds included BLUE-HEADED VIREO, ROSE-BREASTED
GROSBEAK, SUMMER and SCARLET TANAGER.

I got my first of the season BROWN CREEPER and RUDDY DUCKs.  Other
wintering birds included YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER, WHITE-THROATED
SPARROW and RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET.  I ran into Michael Bernard,
former Nashville birder now living in Charleston and here for
the weekend. He told me he had a WINTER WREN near the dam.

Ruddy Duck 5
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker 2
Hairy Woodpecker 3
