Hi all,
The meadow was active early. I was there by myself for a while and watched
with confused intimidation as hordes of fall warblers spun around a bunch of
trees. Soon after, though, I was joined by Ralph Wall and we (well, he)
started to decipher what was what. List of what what we (collectively) saw
is below.
