Date of sighting: June 22, 2009

Justin, Kathy, and I went up Lundy to look for the Northern Parula that has been sighted recently up by the resort. We heard it sing – an ascending trill that ends in a high “pip” – and then we saw it in a willow north of the dirt road. We watched it hop around and preen and sing for over 20 minutes. It was wonderful.

So many vagrants around! I feel a bit giddy, being a relatively new birder, and very thankful that we live in such a wonderful place.
