4/10 - Storrs, UConn-CLAS Building -- (3:55-4:25pm) BOHEMIAN WAXWING
at previously described location, though in coniferous tree west and
across the street from the crabapple. It was in the presence of about
20 Cedar Waxwings. It remained in the large conifer except to come to
the ground to feed on dropped crabapples underneath the conifer. We
never saw it go to the fruit tree.

Also of note, the first report of Louisiana Waterthrush. (If you care
about the state of the migration you should be reading CTBirds too.)
