Hi Charlie and Tweeters,

I was on the fields portion of the census. We were in
the south tower and could hear the Yellow-breasted
Chat well enough to know that was what it was. No one
saw it though. From the south tower we saw at least 2
broods of little Coots.

One of the myriad Common Yellowthroats was feeding a
fledging Brown-headed Cowbird on our walk.
