Haven't had much time to spend at Green Cay but I can feel Spring in the air and migratory birds to show up soon!
At Green Cay the highlights were:
A Cinnamon xBlue-wingedxCinnamon Teal backcross (Expert from Cornell Lab verified).
A full breeding male Least Bittern right out in the open.
A few full breeding Green Heron
A group of 6 Wilson's Snipe doing their synchronized dance in the sky.
Black-bellied Whistling Ducks inflight
American Bittern continues
An immature Common Grackle with a lizard in the beak - fun to watch being fed.
My first time ever hearing a male Painted Bunting singing for several minutes only a few feet away from me and away from a feeder.
Several Sora Rails
Immature Black-Crowned Nigh Heron in flight
Purple Gallinules were present as well.

For a brief amount of time at Green Cay I cannot complain.
