Nice morning walk, but there were too many birds around to do any power walking, so most of the exercise this morning was from lifting binoculars, rather than a proper cardiovascular workout. Lots of new birds for the year. Great to see all these birds coming back from the Caribbean and Latin America. Maneuvering through the poison ivy to see these little guys is a lot like a dance, a neotropical migratory bird cumbia.
