Visited Seven Islands refuge (Knox Co.) yesterday afternoon. I saw between
11 and 15 Tree Swallows (first of season) and got a new bird for myself for the
refuge in Redhead. There were 5 males and 1 female on the far side of the river
between the riverside bench and the gourd nests/ osprey platform. Redhead was
not on the bird checklist sign so not sure if they've been seen here before or
not. Otherwise pretty quiet in the bright sunlight (suprisingly no raptors).
There was also a first of season Zebra Swallowtail butterfly.
