Hi Peter,

we had a bout 8 people on the walk today.  it was not dripping with birds, but there was always something to look at.  We looked for Ed's Alder and Karen O'Hearn heard it and a few people were able to pick it out (me not being one of them :-()

We also had nice looks at a (non-vocalizing) yellow-bellied flycatcher that Isabel found on teh Hammerhead.  I'm attaching 2 of Janet's photos.

TONS of Blackpolls.
