Hey everyone,
 
This morning I birded Mink Brook. I didn't find as many migrants as I thought I would, but it was nice to hear a Black-throated Green and Yellow Warbler. And there were good numbers of Black-and-white, Pine, and Yellow-rumped Warblers. I thought I heard a Rose-breasted Grosbeak at one point, but it was in the distance and I couldn't quite make it out. And the Merlin was calling again briefly this morning.

I also took a quick ride through Pine Knolls Cemetery, but besides several Black-and-white Warblers and a House Wren, I didn't encounter anything too interesting. Below is the list of birds I had at Mink Brook.

Cheers,
