The most exciting bird of the weekend was definitely yesterday’s KENTUCKY WARBLER<\/a>. Aside from that, it was just the usuals as we start slipping into summer birding mode. Fortunately the mornings were still cool which made for very enjoyable birding conditions. I had one exciting sighting which was not bird related – I witnessed a Gray Fox run across the road as I was driving on Route 50 in New Hampton. It was the first time I’ve ever seen one. Here’s a handful of shots from the weekend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
