Chestnut-sided Warbler.

Jack and I had the distinct pleasure of introducing my niece and her husband to Beech Hill this morning. The sun warmed the landscape, the day lilies bloomed, early blueberries offered snacks, birds flitted and called Hoping to repeat the experience again next year (at the latest).

(The blueberries, too, were a distinct pleasure.)

Bird Report is a (sometimes intermittent) record of the birds I encounter while hiking, see while driving, or spy outside my window. —Brian Willson
