Three Savannah Sparrows and a Lincoln's Sparrow were seen at the field edge.
The north pond continued to hold two Blue-winged Teal, the Pied-billed Grebe, and the Hooded Merganser. A Great Blue Heron was also there.
The Pectoral Sandpiper was still present at the West Gremar Road retention pond, this time with five Lesser Yellowlegs.
In the late morning, I stopped at the Newburg Road retention pond. The large, grassy area between the pond and the hospital held 21 Killdeer. When I heard a croaking call, I looked up and saw a Common Raven soaring overhead. At least 11 Savannah Sparrows were spotted around the pond.
There are new walking paths that go along the pond and the grounds of the hospital. On the east side of the pond, one of the paths goes between a large overgrown field and a row of small spruces. It was here that I found 3 Northern Flickers, 3 Eastern Phoebes, a House Wren, 3 Lincoln's Sparrows, 2 Palm Warblers, and 6 American Goldfinches.
Now early afternoon, I checked the area around Green Pond and was really surprised to find six species of warblers. They included Nashville, Magnolia, Black-throated Green, and Yellow-rumped Warbler, Northern Parula, and Common Yellowthroat.
That's where I also saw a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker in one of the trees by the intersection.
Back home, I looked out the window and discovered another Yellow-bellied Sapsucker in my crabapple tree.
Around my little waterfowl, I saw a newly-arrived White-throated Sparrow and a Gray Catbird.
