Fwd: suburban Ovenbird

[Kevin Potter <kevin_potter@yahoo.com>]

Must be quite an ovenbird crop this year. Last night
at about 7 p.m., my fellow NC State forestry graduate
student Jim Norwalk (who's studying Swainson's
warblers) found one in the early successional
demonstration area between Jordan and Biltmore halls,
a stone's throw from Western Boulevard.
