Hi Peter,

Fifteen birders took part in the Tuesday walk this morning in spite of very light rain for the first half hour.  We were lucky enough to be joined by Doug Gotchfield and Jeff Gordon, President of the American Birding Association.  Jeff spotted the Wormeating Warbler on Lookout, which was probably the highlight of the day.  There were pockets of warblers on Lookout and along the southern edge of the Lake, but very few birds in between. 

Thanks to Adelia Honeywood who shared her list with the rest of us. 

Kathy
