The PGT Birdwalk was this morning and the weather was perfect. Lottie Bushman lead 25 people on a relaxed walk around the property. The picture shows the group trying to get a glimpse of a Blue-winged Warbler. Because we had to look strait up into a tall tree many people started to feel their neck muscles tighten. I call that “Warbler neck”.

A highlight of the day was a very good look at a Summer Tanager and a Worm-eating Warbler.
