Chip Francke's and the Mannings' new Ottawa County bird book (posted May 23 on our home page) says on page 19 that Pine Warblers are resident at Kitchel/Lindquist Dunes Preserve, so I birded there this morning in hopes of finding one. No luck; all songs like theirs in the pine trees were being sung by Chipping Sparrows.
Nevertheless, I still had a pleasant walk and found 33 species including American Kestrel, Great Crested Flycatcher, Purple Martin, Brown Thrasher, Cedar Waxwing, Eastern Towhee, and a photographable American Redstart and Yellow Warbler.
