From Alex Burdo: 04/26/11 - Fairfield, Birdcraft Sanctuary -- 1 LOUISIANA WATERTHRUSH, 3 Northern Waterthrush, 1 Ovenbird, 1 Common Yellowthroat, 1 Prairie Warbler, 1 BROWN CREEPER, +10 GRAY CATBIRD, ~15 Yellow-rumped Warbler, 2 Black-and-white Warbler, 1 HERMIT THRUSH Fairfield, Backyard -- 2 CHIPPING SPARROW The Louisiana Waterthrush is a particularly uncommon bird at Birdcraft and a first for me there. The areas of the highest activity were around the pond, the oaks bordering the small hill at the NE side of the property, and the bridge facing the pond. It was a fantastic morning to be out, with tomorrow looking just as good! -Alex Burdo Fairfield
