Hi All-

Two large flocks of GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GEESE have gone over our place today, headed northwest.  Also heard a WESTERN FLYCATCHER and MCGILLIVRAY'S WARBLER for the first time.

A couple of GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE FLOCKS flew north over E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area around noon today, apparently on a different route from Karan's northwest-bound flocks.

A WILSON'S WARBLER showed up in our yard today, the first one I've actually seen (though I thought I was hearing one or two last week). There's been a heavy movement of both MYRTLE and AUDUBON'S WARBLERS.
