A little slow at Magee 26-Apr-2003 - I arrived at the boardwalk just before Noon. The weather was sunny, temps in the 50's, with northwest winds at 15 mph. I observed: Sharp-shinned Hawk, Yellow-rumps, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, White-throated Sparrow, a Junco, Screech Owl perched in a familiar spot, Palm Warbler, 2 White-eyed Vireos, heard a Catbird.

After Magee, I went to Ottawa where they had an open house auto tour. It took about 45 minutes to complete the drive. I saw Bufflehead, 3 Bald Eagles, Eastern Meadowlarks, Brown Thrasher, Blue-winged Teal, Gadwalls, Coots, Pied-billed Grebe.
