Blackbird Sp - 1000+ (flyover groups), mostly Grackles, including one
group of ~1000 and a few smaller blackbirds (~10), likely Rusty BBs.
White-winged Crossbill - a calling group of 8 or so, flying low over
trees (split second look)

Gisland Farm, ME Audubon Ctr (Falmouth) - 10/15/12:
Northern Parula - 1 (getting late)

I did have at least one pair (if not more) of Evening Grosbeaks at Old
Town House Park last Saturday (the 13th) - sorry for the delayed notice.

Good birding!
