May 3: For the third day in a row there were no migrants to be found – a single Blackpoll Warbler completed the grand tally of one. However there were two Least Bitterns, one of which remained out in the open within fifteen feet of the boardwalk for over half an hour. Then on the drive home, three Black- hooded (Nanday) Parakeets were perched on a wire on Lyons Road, making repeated forays into the nearby seed-bearing shrubs.
