Watching a flock of >30 robins on the office parking lot all afternoon,
I ran upriver at 6 pm this evening, wondering if the interesting weather
might produce interesting birds. Nothing out of the ordinary for water
birds, but I had a female kestrel at the Pompy Farms oxbow and a nice
male Yellow-rumped Warbler at Kendall Flats. The best birding was at
Campbell Flats from 7-7:15. I flushed 6 Wilson's Snipe out of the wet
sedge meadow on the north side of the road, 4 Savannah Sparrows along
the edge of the cut corn field, and I watched a lone American Pipit
foraging for earthworms on the sleet-covered road.
