Sorry for the typo, folks... Swainson's Thrush, not Warbler.

To: <ctbirds...>
Had a decent morning with 40 species from our property adjoining Spectacle
Brook Swamp, including Swainson's Warbler, the resident Wood Duck pair,
breeding Phoebes, Canada and Wilson's Warblers among others, and
Yellow-billed Cuckoo.
Big news was Alder Flycatcher, working the north end of the swamp across
from the blind on the Woodcock Nature Center trail off Gilly Lane. He
called off and on all morning, and gifted me with a good view on one of his
circuits around the swamp.
