Millennium Park (West Roxbury, MA); 22 May 2020

Today’s weather was fantastic. There was not even a single cloud in the sky, there was very little/intermittent wind, and it was relatively warm (high 50’s/low 60’s Fahrenheit). This excursion went on from approximately 6:50am to about 11:30am EST. Although a beautiful day, and the early timing, there were plenty of other people there, doing a range of things from walking their dogs, running, birding, etc. to get outside and enjoy the beautiful day. But the good weather also brought out a lot of active birds. There were a bunch of birds hanging out in the soccer fields throughout the park, many flying about from here to there, and a lot more just sitting in trees and singing their songs. On another good note, I saw my first Yellow-rumped Warblers flying between trees today. I couldn’t get a good picture of it, but I think I may have gotten a good audio recording of it. Overall, I was able to get pictures and audio recordings today of birds which I have previously not been able to capture, which was a good progression to make I’d say. It was a pretty decent day today.
