First Visit to Magee Marsh

Yesterday marked my first visit to Magee Marsh for spring migration and WOW! The day was hampered by some heavy rains, but that brought the insects and the birds down low. My trip was cut short a day by camera issues, but I added nine new species to my count and some great, up-close bird experiences.

Never did get the shot of the Canada Warbler I wanted - whether it was poor lighting or the camera started acting up. They look good small, but not blown up.
