We saw the same species minus the Yellow-throated warbler walking around the DM pond and the Ryder business building. We also had a Swainson's Thrush.
Definitely the best bird during our walk has to be 2 ROYAL TERN that flew over the Ryder BB which was super awesome to see this species this far inland. What an unexpected surprise! The constant strong winds must have pushed this bird inland. Keep your eyes open there might be more pelagic birds around.
Yesterday a friend took us to John U. Lloyd SP, he surfed while we birded, there lots of birds offshore but too far to ID even @ 60 power. We did see the following however:
Pomarine Jaeger (killer looks right on the beach)
Manx Shearwater (1)
Bridled Tern (3)
Royal Tern (lots)
Herring Gull (2)
Laughing Gull (too many to count)
Great Egret (flock flying over the water)
Not bad for 1 1/2 hours of birding and our friend caught some nice waves.
Nature is Awesome
