Another crisp morning with completely clear sky. Like yesterday there was little to see, despite the northwest wind overnight. Up until about 8 o'clock not much stirred and the terrain was mostly poorly illuminated because the low sun was still behind trees. When I discovered any twitch it was almost certainly the result of a White-throated sparrow. There are so many of them. I even saw a WT near the ground beside me and ignored it for several precious seconds until I realized that it was not a sparrow at all, but a Palm warbler. Too late to recover that fumble. Almost immediately two more warblers arrived: a Myrtle and a Common yellowthroat. That was it for warblers. I saw one RC kinglet but no GC versions. Two phoebe briefly visited near me and two juvenile sapsuckers. Just before I left a Cooper's hawk flew over my head from behind me and landed just long enough to get a shot, which was not all that close, unfortunately.
