VA Birders,
31 species made appearances in my yard this morning. The most surprising was
an ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER, which was a first. The only other warbler species
present were 1 TENNESSEE and 12 YELLOW-RUMPS.
A BLUE-HEADED VIREO dropped by and gave me excellent looks. Another vireo in
the top of a locust never gave me great looks, but from what I saw it was
probably a Warbling Vireo. A female YELLOW-BELLIED SAPSUCKER showed up in a
walnut tree, and a RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET hopped about in the large Cedar
tree.
1 immature male ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK came through but didn't stay long. I
heard only one SWAINSON'S THRUSH this morning where there have been several.
Enjoy the birds,
Roger Mayhorn
Grundy, VA
