 Coulda made a good in-flight shot if branch wasn't there.
 As you are probably starting to see, I had a bit of a "Myrtle" Warble-shoot.

 Showing its yellow-crown and rump.
 Young Cooper's
 Pine Warbler
 Not a Pine Tree in sight!
 Cropped a little more.

 More "Myrtle" (Yellow-rumped) Warblers
 Eatin Coots
 N. Rough-winged Swallow behind branches

All previous from Wawanosh Wetlands.

If you look closely, you can see the neck and head of a Wild Turkey in CANATARA PARK!


The following are at Dow Wetlands.

Pair of Pide-billed Grebes
 Eastern Meadowlark
Despite trying for some time, this is the only ID'able Cliff Swallow shot I got.
