Considering that fall migration is almost over, it was interesting to see a Black-and-White Warbler and a couple of Blue-headed Vireos. The Green-winged Teal drake put on an amusing display while being manipulated by a Mallard hen!
This registrar’s favorite was probably the uber-adorable Eastern Phoebe, who was extra fluffy this morning.
All in all, it was a nice way to end the season. Many thanks to our volunteer leaders, Kevin, Alice, and co-leader Evelyn, who assisted Alice.
