Apologies for the late post; seems the first one didn't get through.

Took a lap around Powhatan State Park Sunday. There was plenty of wind ahead
of the afternoon rain, but the fields were full of singing Common
Yellowthroats and---wait for it---Field Sparrows! Heard my FOS Wood Thrush
and Indigo Buntings, and a Screech Owl trilling near the forest edge. Quite
a few Ovenbirds, Yellow-throated and Red-eyed Vireos, Northern Parulas,
Northern Bobwhites, and what I can only guess were hundreds of American
Goldfinches chattering and feeding on caterpillars in the riverbottom canopy.
A couple of Northern Harriers blew past me on my way our.

Hope everyone is finding at least a little time to get outside and enjoy the
beauty of it all.
