Thanks Liam!

Thanks William!

Thanks Jon!

Thanks Steven!

Wednesday 6/11: BBN was pretty quiet, RB Grosbeaks near a nest were about it.

Thursday 6/12: Virginia Rail at Arlington Great Meaodws along with FOY Slender Spreadwing, Prince Baskettail, and Eastern Pondhawk.

Friday 6/13: College Pond had 2 otters, a RB Nuthatch, Veery, and not too much else.

Saturday 6/14: Heard Farm had mostly the usual. Sedge Meadow had an Orchard Oriole and lots of wet brush.

Sunday 6/15: Went down to Plymouth for the cicada/kite show. One kite over the car before I had parked, 1-2 more flying around. Cicadas were fairly numerous but not in huge numbers, although I counted 20 in one photo I took of the treetops, so there were probably far more than I realized. Myles Standish next, drop cool for odes but a few bluets that I haven’t seen in a while and a few other things. Pulled in at Nelson but it looked crowded, so just went home.

Thanks Rick!

Wednesday 7/10: Nothing much at Weston Station Pond, did the loop around the quarry pond for the first time.

Thursday 7/11: Eagles, Osprey, not much else at Mystic Lakes.

Friday 7/12: Woodcock, Least Sandpipers, etc at BBN.

Saturday 7/13: Original plan was to go check on the Acadians and maybe Belle Isle. That changed with the Brown Booby report. Didn’t rush quite like the Anhinga, but I was up and out on the early side. Couple showers on the way, but it was when I got there and the bird was sitting in the open. Good looks, good crowd. Thanks Laura!

Thanks Brian, Kim, Jeff, etc! And everyone else along the way too.

Wednesday 5/15: Started for Weston Station Pond but traffic looked awful so went to Shade St and Hobbs Brook. Nothing terribly exciting at either.

Thursday 5/16: RT Loon was still on the res. Got nicer at Great Meadows, 2 Common Loons flying over and a singing Willow Flycatcher (commute #150 for the year) about it.

Friday 5/17: No early word on the Chuck-will’s-widow, so Habitat it was. Few warblers, a singing thrush that needed a longer listen, not too much else.

Thanks Mark!
