Hey folks,
This was another great morning along Mink Brook, very pleasant weather and a nice number of birds. I had 13 warbler species, pretty much the same species as yesterday. Highlights were Solitary Sandpipers on the exposed mudflats (barely) and shoreline along the brook, a flyover Wilson's Snipe, and my FOS Swainson's Thrush, heard giving the high whine. Notable birds below.
