The yellow warblers are back and they too will soon be nesting in shrubs around the garden. Again, please stay out of thickets and out of the Old Field habitat. It is too easy to step on or dislodge a nest of birds such as these and the song sparrows which nest on the ground or close to.

Birds are really pouring through our region now. There are Nashville warblers, yellow-rumped, these yellow warblers, Baltimore orioles, vireos, etc.
