Today at the corner of Route 2 and Stange Road was a Cattle Egret foraging in the lawn, just right off the road. Also, I was able to view the Prairie Warbler on the Magee boardwalk with some other birders, a few got some great photos. At the Magee bird center there was a Pine Warbler foraging in the pines along the parking area. Here are the rest of my sightings.
