-Windy, warm, and overcast in NDG today, but not overly birdy

-Saw my first Chipping Sparrow of spring a few days ago on a lawn…only one spotted today though

-Only one Eastern Phoebe seen

-I was expecting some White-throated Sparrows, but nothing at my patch…then a probable whisper of a WTSP call on the way home, from a fence-line near some yards…

-No warblers save for the ones in my head

-On the butterfly front, Mourning Cloaks, Red Admirals (early?), and Cabbage Whites were out

-15 species in 90 minutes
