Of course there were also those confusing fall warblers who couldn't sit still
long enough to get good enough field marks for positive id.
-Great Egrets have been hanging around this area for an unprecedented four
months now.
-Also had a flock of Bobolink and a quite uncommon (for this area) Sedge Wren
the following day.
-For those who are interested, I understand that a couple of Philadelphia
Vireos were seen at Jackson Park yesterday.
