Found a Carolina Wren in Courthouse Park today.  Best description of
directions is in south central part of the park along the stream.  Good
numbers of migrant warblers were also found but not spread out much as most
were in only two or three waves.  Listened for chickadees and when found
there were usually warblers in that area also.

Refound the Common Moorhens at Moonan WMA.  We had two separate adults at
the same time and each had 4 young.  Were a single pair of adults split up
and each kept 4 young for a brood total of 8 or were there two separate
pairs of moorhens and each pair had four young?  The two separate broods
appeared to be about the same size , if not exactly the same size.  Anybody
seen more than 4 young at once?  The Coot in the area appeared to be alone,
with no young and no mate.  It was not close to the moorhens.
