A few of us spent most of last week on Brier. There were lots of Yellow 
Warblers, Golden-crowned Kinglets, Grey Catbirds, American Redstarts and 
Common Yellowthroats.  There were a couple of Eastern Phoebes and 
Eastern Wood-Pewees as well as some Alder Flycatchers.  Highlights would 
be a Blue-Grey Gnatcatcher, White-crowned Sparrow and 3 Eastern 
Bluebirds.  Raptors included Turkey Vultures as well as single sightings 
of Osprey, Broad-winged Hawk and Sharp-shinned Hawk.  There was a good 
number of Tree Swallows (a welcome sign) and a few Barn Swallows.

Our total species was only 68.  Noticeably absent were common birds such 
as Great Blue Heron, Green-winged Teal, any shorebirds, any terns, and 
Northern Gannets.
