Horn Pond 4/10

From Paul Ippolito and Diana Fruguglietti:

This morning 26 people participated in a joint BBC, Menotomy Bird Club and WREN walk at Horn Pond in Woburn.  Highlights included an American Kestrel (been quite a few years), Merlin, 2 Peregrine Falcons (Horn Pond Bird # 167 for us), Ruffed Grouse (Horn Pond Bird # 168 for us - previously flushed but not conclusive enough to list), White-crowned Sparrow, Common Loon and a red-morph Eastern Screech Owl in a cavity.  Good numbers of Palm Warblers at 14 and 2 Yellow-rumped Warblers.
