Hi folks,
I went to the little pools on the right side of the road just before the tourist Information shack where I sat for about an hour and a half among migrating warblers. Unless otherwise noted, most of the birds were seen or heard at the little pulloff in the woods.
6 Purple martins - Al the colony going in an out of their nest openings. There were several more but I could not get a count on them. All of the houses also had a tree swallow perched in the roof.
1 Evening grosbeak In the village
1 Sandhill crane Near the boat launch
The rest were associated with the Tourist Info Pools

1 Black and white warbler
