Nature Done Wright

 Best warbler day I've had all spring at the CF this morning with 11
species (6 of them seen) Highlights were a gorgeous singing male
CHESTNUT-SIDED, my first at the CF this year and a 1st year male
ORCHARD ORIOLE. A Mourning Warbler was heard only near the Tractor.

    Also saw a very probable ALDER FLYCATCHER (partial song and pip call
heard) and a nice look at a SOLITARY SAND along the Allendale B
rook.
VEERY and WOOD THRUSH were seranading the woods.
    In the evening
John and Marcus found a well-marked SAVANNAH SPARROW at Greenway which
was still there when I arrived. 4 Great Egrets were roosting in the
marsh.
   Full list from this morning below.  (Thanks, Rob!)
