Ok so I started the day in Burlington at a kids hockey tournament. Found singing Savannah Sparrow (2) and a Field Sp singing. 1 Eastern Kingbird. My payback from the two lads (1 mine) was they were commondeered to the Berlin Airport and Berlin Pond, both excellent bird sites. We counted, I bet, no less than 20 singing male Savannah Sps, many of whom were singing from the fence surrounding the runways. The airport is always a good spot to look for Ea Meadowlarks. Alas, we found 2...oh, such a sweet song. Pond gave us Ring-neck Ducks (6), 2 Hoodies and 1 F Bufflehead. Swamp Sparrows, 1 Yellow Warbler, 1 Canada W, 1 Pine W, bunch Yelow rumps, 2 Northern Waterthrushs, 1 No Parula, 1 Pileated, 1 Hermit Th, Bl thr Geen W, Ruby -cr Kinglets, Warbling Vireo, and a Winter Wren. Then when we got home the fun just continued !! 1 BA Oriole !! 1 Gr-cr Flycatcher, 1 Gr Catbird, and several White-crowned Sparrows by the feeder. And a Spring Azure and a Red Admiral butterfly. Wow... does life get any better ??
