SRD was hopping this morning. Best bird was a Ash-throated flycatcher,
heard only but 100% certain of it (ok, it could'dve been another Myiarchus
but that's the only other option). I tried for ~25 minutes, while it
called continuously, to find it in the edge of a cottonwood gallery of that
east/west berm that parallels and is just south of Vireo Alley (aka Old
channel trail). It was slightly NW of where all that construction
equipment/trailer office thing is.
Area N of Vireo Alley is closed.
Some highlights: lots of Willow flys, Laz. buntings, 4 E. kingbirds (3
adults, 1 youth)
1 BT Gray, 1 W. tanager.
good birding, Tom
negative datum--- Yellow-billed cuckoo: nearly 1; tent caterpillars are
there just waiting to be dined on though.
