I did my annual point counts at Roy Mountain WMA in Barnet this 
morning.  It's an amazing and seldom-visted site -- a mature, 
moss-festooned cedar-fir swamp that was cutover many years ago and is 
now in reasonably pristine condition.  There are no trails, and walking 
is tricky, with many deadfalls and hummocks and a lot of standing 
water.  The bird assemblage is unusual, with good numbers of 
Yellow-bellied Flycatchers, No. Parulas, N. Waterthrushes, and Canada 
Warblers.

Highlights, mostly singing males:

Olive-sided Flycatcher  1
Yellow-bellied Flycatcher  8
Alder Flycatcher  2     (nest with 2 eggs in adjacent alder wetland)
Great Crested Flycatcher  1 (surprising)
Blue-headed Vireo  2
Brown Creeper  2
Winter Wren  4
Hermit Thrush  3
Nashville Warbler  1
Northern Parula  4
Magnolia Warbler  3
Yellow-rumped Warbler  1
Black-throated Green Warbler  4
Blackburnian Warbler  1
Northern Waterthrush  8
Canada Warbler  6
White-throated Sparrow  8
Dark-eyed Junco  6
Purple Finch  1
