7:15-9:35am
crisp and clear
After dropping my wife off at the airport, I walked Mission Hill and
Phase 1 of Shelby Bottoms on Tuesday morning. The Hill gave me my
first of the year LINCOLN'S SPARROW and a calling E. SCREECH OWL.
In the Bottoms in the partially cut area I had 2 MARSH WRENs right
along the paved trail edge and 2 nice looks at 2 SEDGE WRENs farther
back. I managed 11 species of warblers with MAGNOLIA being the most
numerous, but I also was able to spy a male WILSON'S, an ORANGE-CROWNED,
and a YELLOW-THROATED in addition to the usual suspects. VIREOs were
represented by WHITE-EYED and PHILADELPHIA. A pair of immature COOPER'S
HAWKS chased each other and flew low over my head. In all I found 51
species.
