Had a splendid morning at Sequoyah. Saw and/or heard 72 species. There was a lot of water in the fields but very few shorebirds. I suspect they got up and got gone on this sw push of winds. The river is very high and there was a lot of tree trash going downriver at Sandtown parking lot. And as I expected a half a dozen Spotted Sandpipers were sitting on the log jams as they floated down river. Fish Crows were also enjoying a ride. As was a turtle and a snake. A Canada Goose with her two youngsters were also zipping along down the flow. She got them safely to shore.
Best birds of the day were two Black-necked Stilts, two Black-bellied Plovers, and a singing male Black-throated Green Warbler. That warbler might be a state bird for me.
