The species lists shows the effect of the cool spring of migration. We had good numbers of early warblers, such as yellow-rumped, but only one thrush! (I think we had about ten people on the trip.)
17 species of warbler, 3 species of vireo.

On the way home, Nancy Swirka and I went to the raven's nest at the Crown Colony office park in Quincy. About four or five young had fledged. It looked like the nest had fallen down. One lone young bird was perched on the remains of the nest. The parents were very noisy which was echoing all over the place!
