The first of the NTOS spring Radnor Lake walks started with a whopping 32
participants. There were new birders and good birders and a few hot birders and
everyone had fun spotting birds. While this wasn't much of a warbler day (8
species and only 12 individuals), many of us got our first glimpses at migrants
returning from their winter environs. Notable species included Acadian
Flycatcher, Wood and Swainson's Thrush, Blue-winged and Yellow Warblers, and a
very cooperative Scarlet Tanager. Others less cooperative included E. Kingbird,
Scarlet Tanager, and Rose-breasted Grosbeak.
