Freetown State Forest, May 19. 2012

Sixteen members of the BBC and SSBCs joined me for a morning walk at Freetown State Forest in Freetown and Fall River.  We found our target birds -- worm-eating warblers (2) and hooded warblers (3).  A brief side trip to Blossom Rd, FR in the Watuppa watershed added 2 Acadian flycatchers. The unimproved condition of some roads aborted the planned route.
