Yesterday we were successful in finding 5 species of gulls around Kimberly 
Point/Riverside Park in Neenah.  These included a brief look at the Kittiwake 
and 2 Great Black-backed Gulls as they fed and frolicked in the gale like 
northeast winds among the thousands of Herring Gulls.
Our day begin with nice long looks at 2 Carolina Wrens singing and foraging in 
leaf litter at Bay Beach in Green Bay.  Then we added the Tufted Titmouse for 
Brown County that is continuing at feeders near Point au Sable.

Although the day begin with rather warm temperatures and the start of what we 
thought would be a welcome spring-like day, it ended with a return to the long 
winter that we are having in NE Wisconsin.

A side note for some that still are searching for Bohemian Waxwing.  A small 
flock of 50-75 birds have returned to their usual feeding area around the 
intersection of Hwy C and U in southeast Florence Co.  They were noted only 
briefly in the early fall of 2012 at this location.
