Hundreds of warblers at Tumalo Reservoir, mainly Yellow-rumps, came out of
the willows and went back and forth to pines and junipers and then back
again to the willows. We were often frustrated by hiding warblers and many
who did not give us satisfying looks. Steve and Tom informed us that the
collective noun for a group of warblers is a Confusion which certainly
matched how it felt this morning. A Red-shouldered Hawk perched in a tree
top but didn't linger. No shorebirds. Twin Bridges was slower than Tumalo
Reservoir in terms of songbird migration but at least we had better looks at
a few birds. A Willow Flycatcher perched in the open for us but another
empid was less cooperative. Beautiful day to be out birding. This report was
mailed for Judy Meredith by http://birdnotes.net
