The weather for my walk at Radnor Lake this Thursday morning
could not have been more different than yesterday.  Today was
cloudy with the wind at times beginning to pick up. The birds
were not as numerous -- the vast majority of them being
concentrated at the dam area.  Nevertheless, the morning walk
proved enjoyable.  A pair of BLUE-WINGED TEAL were on the
lake along with dozens of CANADA GEESE.  Dozens of CHIMNEY
SWIFTs swirled about.  I ended the morning with 4 species of
vireos and 9 species of warblers.  ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAKs
were still around and a GRAY-CHEEKED THRUSH and SCARLET
TANAGER provided nice variety.
