Folks,
Have birded the Pinnacles NAP several times during the past week and have found
some fairly good birds:
a.. Black Vulture (nesting)
b.. Louisiana Waterthrush
c.. Northern Parula
d.. B-G Gnatcatcher
e.. Yellow-Throated Warbler
f.. Oven Bird
g.. Warbling Vireo
h.. Wood Thrush
In addition there are lots of wildflowers in bloom (ergo Dwarf Crested Iris
have started, Dwarf Larkspur, Large-Flowered Bellwort, Long-Spurred Violets,
Wild Columbine, etc.), Springtime Darner and Ashy Clubtail dragonflies are
flying, as are some really good butterflies (ergo Juniper Hairstreaks, Zebra
Swallowtails, Falcate Orangetips, and Henry's Elfins) and even Hummingbird
Moths.
Enjoy the wildlife...
