The four along with several other birders were unable to locate the
Burrowing Owl today.  A good variety of migrants were seen on the island
though specifically at Lighthouse Point.  These include (in no specific
order):

Worm-eating Warbler
Black-and-white Warbler
Northern Parula
Hooded Warbler
Blue-winged Warbler
Nashville Warbler
Palm Warbler
Chestnut-sided Warbler
Yellow Warbler
Yellow-rumped Warbler
Northern Waterthrush
Common Yellowthroat
Scarlet Tanager
White-eyed Vireo
Red-eyed Vireo
Swainson's Thrush
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher
Lincoln's Sparrow

Thanks to all for scouting out a very difficult place to get to on short
notice!  Maybe the little beast ended up on the mainland somewhere.

Cheryl Edgecombe
sadly not even voted on the island today
