[CT Birds] Stratford yard/RR trail

[Scott Kruitbosch]

>From Scott Kruitbosch:
3/14 - Stratford yard  -- 1 WINTER WREN, 2 BROWN CREEPERS, 3 BLACK VULTURES

Other species of note included 2 RUBY-CROWNED KINGLETS and 8 GOLDEN-CROWNED
KINGLETS. In my areas, the Sparrow species have gone down a bit in the last
few days, while both the Robins and Mockingbirds have increased. No sign of
any other early migrants.

I made a quick stop late in the afternoon at the Stratford railroad trail,
finding 3 KILLDEER and 3 GREATER YELLOWLEGS.
