I found Golden-crowned Kinglets at two locations along the lakefront in Milwaukee. Those locations were Veterans Park and Lake Park. Flocks of about a dozen at each spot. They focused on feeding in the lawn areas and where water was. I assume they were eating gnats or whatever they could find, it was nonstop action with this species like usual. That was the highlight of the day. Other species seen to note, Field Sparrows, Song Sparrows and Common Grackles. I heard my 1st Gray Catbird of the year but did not see it. It was a very pleasant morning to be out birding with highs in the 50’s, some sun, no wind. Images were taken on April 5, 2019.
