- Saw year bird: male Ruby-throated Hummingbird in the trees near where we saw the Swainsons Thrush.
- Year bird male Indigo Bunting in the woods.
- RI yearbird Ovenbird also in the woods.
- Many sightings of Great Horned Owls (2?).
- Baltimore Orioles, Wood Thrushes, Yellow-rumped Warblers, Chipping Sparrows, Blue Jays and Common Grackles were the most numerous species.
- Not half as many White-throated Sparrows as last time.
- Might have seen the Lincolns Sparrow but it could have been a Song Sparrow.
- There were two Cedar Waxwings near the Hummingbird.
- Many crows and jays mobbing the owl(s?). The owl(s?) were very active and I spotted them quite often hidden up in the trees. They our one of my favorite bird species.

- I first saw the(?) owl take off from a branch near the ivy coated section near where we saw the hummingbird.
