A nice morning at Forks of the Credit (luckily the rain stopped just before I got there), with most of the expected grassland species, like Clay-colored, Grasshopper, Savannah and Field Sparrows, Bobolink and Eastern Meadowlark. The most surprising birds were two Yellow-rumped Warblers, maybe very late migrants. Full list below.
