I walked the Wetland Trail circuit at Mount Uniacke Museum Estate this morning, starting in fog and ending in partial sunshine.  The joint was jumping with birds!

My first bird was a late American Tree Sparrow(1).  Others that followed included Yellow-rumped(20+), Palm(1), and Magnolia Warblers(1), Winter Wren(6) singing vigorously, Hermit Thrush(6), Ruby-crowned Kinglet(12+), Pileated(1) and Hairy Woodpeckers(1), a probable very weak singing Blue-headed Vireo(1), Northern Flicker(4), Brown Creeper(10++) singing with gusto, Black-capped Chickadee(4), Blue Jay(1) and Purple Finch(2).

This place is well worth a visit but it is wet in places and winter windfall obstructs the trail in places.

Hans
