After the most complete night of sleep in almost a week as I continue to fight a cold after returning from the topics I felt well enough to take a few longer walks (although by the end of them I was completely wiped out). After a few stops looking for waterfowl and shorebirds I made my way to Hadley to follow up on an early Louisiana Waterthrush that Cory found yesterday. I arrived at the location and quickly had the bird singing occasionally and after waiting a bit I had the bird work right past me and sing in plain view as I captured a few photos. Although not my earliest date for the species in the county in comes very close with my earliest ever date being April 5th last year. There were also multiple Pine Warblers singing in the same location (as well as in many other spots the last few days). I also made a stop by Lake Wallace and had at least a dozen Palm Warblers along the shoreline and showing well.
