Four birders joined me for a not very birdy, but enjoyable, bird walk at Pickering Ponds this am. The high point was a Philadelphia Vireo in a small flurry of activity along the river trail. Not a single warbler was ID'd! Scribe Zeke Cornell returned from Espana to perform his usual impecable species tally below. Dan Hubbard, Rochester
