A walk this morning along the main, winding, 3-mile-long, loop trail on Norwich's wooded Parcel 5 off Beaver Meadow Road yielded 24 bird species. A calling Eastern Wood-Pewee was my first-of-the-year for that species in Norwich for 2010. Along the trail, Red-eyed Vireos, American Robins, Black-throated Blue Warblers, and Ovenbirds were particularly noticeable for their vocalizations. Chestnut-sided Warblers were especially vocal in the lower elevations of Parcel 5 bordering Beaver Meadow Road. Some of the other species detected on Parcel 5 included Veery, Hermit Thrush, Wood Thrush, Yellow-rumped Warbler, Black-throated Green Warbler, Blackburnian Warbler, Common Yellowthroat, Scarlet Tanager, White- throated Sparrow, Dark-eyed Junco, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, and an Indigo Bunting.
