This a.m. was rather birdy.  Species diversity not that great but numbers
decent.  Blackpolls and Tennessee's were again most numerous.  Cedar
waxwings have thinned out a bit.  New for the Pike this fall were Nashville
and Canada, plus my first fall black-throated blue- a gorgeous male.  I was
pishing in some warblers down low and out pops a Tennessee.  From the right
in my peripheral vision I see movement.  Turning slowly here is the b-t blue
not 8' from me.  Watched him gather all the moisture from some elm leaves-
leaf bathing.

Heading out of town for the annual Sister Bay to Rock Island sail, although
forecasted winds may turn it into a motoring trip.  Will post bird sightings
Sunday.
