The Mascomaa Chapter, NH Audubon held a birding trip at Blow-Me-Down Brook in Plainfield this morning.  15 birders were serenaded by a seemingly endless lineup of Yellow and Chestnut-sided Warblers, Common Yellowthroats, and Catbirds.  Highlights included great views of a Blackburnian Warbler, soon followed by our first Magnolia Warbler of the year.  A great place to bird!!  Thanks to the folks at Longacres Nursery for letting us use their property for parking and birding.
