Machimoodus State Park on Sunday, May 11 (Mother's Day). Bright, clear, mild day.
9 birders attended, including a few who had amazing hearing, and knew what they were hearing.
We met our target for the trip. I guaranteed Am. Robins, and we got 1 or 2 (or 3 or 4).
We also had 54 other species, including an immature Bald Eagle flying low at treetop level, 4 Orchard Orioles, 11 species of warblers (including Blackpoll and Wilson's), and both cuckoos.
We'll probably do this area again next May, so come on out and enjoy a day in the country. Excellent variety of habitats provide a good variety of birds.
