Black Throated Green Warbler at Quiet Waters.

After yesterday’s success, I tried Quiet Waters again today, and did well. I’ve said in the past that I should try Quiet Waters more often.

I had to do some searching to find the best spot, but it didn’t take long and I had over an hour of decent activity.  It can be tricky to find migrating birds.
