This morning Dick Brooks and I looked for birds in Norwich west of  
I-91, including Goodrich Four Corners Road, all of Town Farm Road, and  
Waterman Hill Road to the east of its intersection with Town Farm  
Road. A few highlights among 42 species encountered in about 2.5  
hours, spent mostly on foot, were a Broad-winged Hawk flying close  
overhead on Waterman Hill Road, a superb view of a perched and silent  
Barred Owl in the woodland along Town Farm Road, a Northern Flicker  
along Waterman Hill Road, and a repeatedly singing Northern Parula not  
far from a small pond along Goodrich Four Corners Road. Some other  
species notable for relatively loud songs this morning along our route  
included Red-eyed Vireo, Brown Creeper, Hermit Thrush, Chestnut-sided  
Warbler, Black-throated Blue Warbler, Black-throated Green Warbler,  
Ovenbird, Common Yellowthroat, Scarlet Tanager, Rose-breasted  
Grosbeak, White-throated Sparrow, and Purple Finch.
