Hi all! I just stopped into my favorite park really quick this am and saw some birds flitting in the flowering plums, before I even got to the parking lot. One with bright yellow caught my eye. It took a minute to actually get my binocs on it. Lo and behold it was a Nashville Warbler! That is a record 3rd earliest on the IOU early/late dates! Wow! Yesterday, I ran out to my favorite marsh, Edna Shain Fen by Mt. Auburn and was very surprised to see a White-faced Ibis! This is a first record on eBird for Benton Co. This wetland is only around 5 years old! If you build it they will come!
