I spent a couple of hours at the Rochester WWTP & the Pickering Ponds.
Hiked around the ponds and trails and managed to stay reasonably dry
despite the light rain. Not too many gulls despite the rain and nothing
unusual. Almost all of the warblers were in one flock along the River
trail at Pickering Ponds. Select list:
Canada Goose 2

Mallard 12
Green-winged Teal 5

spring for NH.

Subject: Swamp Sparrows and Meadowlark in North Hampton
From: tbbirds(AT)comcast.net (Terry Bronson)
Date: 29 Apr 2008 5:46pm
A brief check of Lovering Road in North Hampton this
morning yielded the following highlights:
Swamp Sparrow--8, 5 seen and 3 heard
Eastern Meadowlark--1 at field at east end near I-95
American Goldfinch--10, 8 beautiful yellow males, 2 females
Red-winged Blackbird--35
Common Grackle--50
Northern Flicker--1
Cooper's Hawk--2 flying together
A fellow I met said there were Orioles at Runnymede Farm,
but I couldn't find any.
The coast from North Hampton State Beach south to Route
101 in Hampton was rather foggy, with visibility being limited
to only about 100 yards in places, so I headed home.
