Conditions a bit different this week from last. Humidity struck and so did the ticks and flies-but the birds were as cool as ever. Nets opened at 5:30 and closed by noon. A total of 25 birds-some new arrivals for the MAPS season. Interesting to have netted both an Acadian Flycatcher and Eastern Wood Pewee for a comparison. Wild-flowers are blooming and saw Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, Eastern-tailed Blue and Pipevine Swallowtail Flutby's.
Here's what we got:
Eastern Wood Pewee
Acadian Flycatcher (male and female)
White-eyed Vireo
Blue-grey Gnatcatcher
Wood Thrush
Prairie Warbler
Black and White Warbler (male and female)
American Redstart
Ovenbird
Hooded Warbler
Yellow-breasted Chat (3)
Northern Cardinal (male and female)
Indigo Bunting (male and female)
Julie Kacmarcik and the MAPS team.
FAT CHAT!
