7/8 Sherman, Rt. 39, Wimisink Marsh - Angela Dimmitt and I are now looking at 2 adult AMERICAN BITTERNS now (10:45). Also at least 7 Green Herons, Wood Ducks, Willow Flycatcher, lots of Swallows (4 species), etc.

As a follow up to my report of two Am Bitterns in Sherman on 7/8, I applaud Angela Dimmitt for keeping tabs on this pair and confirming young this morning. Excellent!
Also, for any birders planning to visit the Sherman area, I can suggest a place to grab some lunch - the Gaylordsville Country Store on Rt 7, just north of the intersection with Rt 55. I personally recommend their homemade pulled pork sandwich, which is very reasonably priced.
