A slow day at Fairhill Nature Center today, but a good turnout of
birdwatchers for leader Scott Powers, 10 all told. It was such a slow
day we resorted to saying "  this spot here was really good for Kentucky
W. in the spring ", etc. etc. It was so slow we were glad to see Red-eye
Vireo. A bit of a let down after the major fall outs @ Turkey Point in
the last week or so.

  Chestnut-sided ( 2 ) and Blue-wing ( 1 ) were had early before the
group arrived.  Canada W. ( 1 ) a first fall bird with extremely obscure
black necklace was seen about 10 am.  Black-throated Blue ( 3 ) ,
Black-throated Green ( 1 ) , Redstart ( 4 ) and Prairie W ( 1 )
completed the Warbler lineup.  Bobolinks ( 10 ) flew overhead as we
traversed a meadow.  One Woodthrush sounded alarm, and 2 Broadwings +
one Osprey were observed overhead at one point.  Not a whole lot else of
note.  Can`t wait for that next front.
