5/19 McLaughlin Woods Finally

[Paul Peterson]

Finally a great day. I was beginning to wonder whether or not the month would slip by without one! Twice I went to the uppermost level, and twice I caught a warbler wave. Awesome! My last bird of the day was a beautiful male Bay-breasted Warbler that was in the the 2nd wave. I birded from 10:15-1:45.
