This past Thursday, May 25, my wife and I saw and heard a GREAT TIT at
Welcker's Point in Peninsula State Park in the late afternoon. The bird was in
the shrubs and trees at the south end of the southernmost picnic site.
There was also a nice pocket of warblers here, apparently sheltering from the
brisk wind. (We had just come from breezy Weborg Point, which was dismally
quiet.) Warbler species seen included some late PALM, N. PARULA, and
YELLOW-RUMPEDS, WILSON'S, BAY-BREASTED, BLACKPOLL, BLACK-THROATED GREEN, COMMON
YELLOWTHROAT, a single female CAPE MAY, MAGNOLIA, BLACK-AND-WHITE, AM.
REDSTART, CHESTNUT-SIDED, and CANADA.
A cheeky female RUFFED GROUSE fed in the open on catkins in some of the picnic
area trees, and several COMMON NIGHTHAWKS flew over.
