This was a 40 specie weekend and after missing our count last weekend, I was
struck by how different the birdlife was since last time.  We managed this
number even though our local Martins are gone, swallows are absent, Grackles
were missing and we didn't even see a Robin, which has to be a first!  This
morning was amazing with the variety of migrants spotted within a period of
about an hour:  A. Redstart, B&W Warbler, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Summer
Tanager and Warbling Vireo.  BG Gnatcatchers still seemed to be everywhere I
looked (both days).  At least 2 Peewees are still hanging around and I
spotted a Brown Thrasher for the first time in several months.  Juvenile
Indigo Buntings are busy around our pond thicket; at one point I counted
three in one bush, along with an adult.  I feel privileged to be able to
see, or hear, Red-headed Woodpeckers, nearly every time I step outside; the
juveniles are out and about and often cross from their home woodlot, to our
trees.  Nighthawks continue to float past just before dark.
