Found the notebook so listed yesterday's and today's birds in today's sidebar.

Nancy and I met Ned for coffee then went up to Plum Island for a quick visit before it was time to take her to the bus station. There was a turkey near the Pines Trail but I don't think it was the same one I saw yesterday. It made me laugh anyway. One of the osprey pair, presumably the female, was perched on the nest. Warblers flitted around everywhere but the only one I got a good look at was a black-throated green.

Not a whole lot else to say, I'm afraid.

 

Here are a few gratuitous photos of unidentified plants from yesterday:
