Cold Spring Park, Newton, Middlesex, Massachusetts, US
May 11, 2019 7:30 AM – 10:05 AM
Comments:    It was a bright, clear day. About 60 degrees at the start of the trip. It was strange to dip on Red-Eyed Vireo for the first time since I’ve been running this trip. No flycatchers were recorded, either.
