This morning my mom and I went for a walk in Union Village, starting at 7:15. We saw 32 species, including 10 warblers.
The highlight was a male Blackpoll Warbler that we heard singing; it took a while, but we located him and got great looks: https://www.flickr.com/photos/68961563@N02/17859505020/
Other nice sights included a Rose-breasted Grosbeak that flew overhead, several Baltimore Orioles, and a Ruffed Grouse drumming from somewhere out in the woods (we heard him a few weeks ago as well).
Around our home: Bobolinks have finally appeared, as have Great-crested Flycatchers. Tree Swallows have taken one of our nest boxes, the other is empty.
