FreeLists / birdky / [birdky] A big morning for yard birds

[kwcoh@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

This morning we had 55 spp in the yard before noon. The highlights were 
Bay-breasted Warbler (a stunning male), Chestnut-sided Warb. (also a gorgeous 
male), Blackpoll Warb. (at least 2), Solitary Sandpiper (on the lakefront), and 
our FOY Yellow-billed Cuckoo. 

We're still hosting 20-30 R-b Grosbeaks and 10-15 Indigo Buntings--many female 
buntings are now here, and it's a good chance to look at them closely, since we 
hardly ever see them once they start nesting. A lone Cedar Waxwing joined the 
throng briefly this morning. They nest in the neighborhood occasionally, so 
perhaps this one is not alone!

Cheery birding!
