[va-richmond-general] Yellowthroat at feeder

Yes, we had a male Common Yellowthroat (COYE) at our suet log yesterday. We had 
heard them behind the house recently. We live on Falling Creek, and have let 
the area near the creek grow up without any control for the last 5-6 years. 
There are thick bushes there, perfect habitat for the COYE. It sure was nice to 
have our efforts culminated by seeing that beautiful, gleaming yellow and black 
bird there fluttering up to the suet. 
By the way, if you have Avisys bird listing software you can enter banding 
codes directly without having to search for the bird in a list. That saves 
loads of time when entering data from a field trip. Using the codes while 
recording during the trip also saves time, leaving more for seeing birds. Not 
for everyone, but good for some.
Hope you see lots of birds. Join or form a team and do the RAS Birdathon. You 
will be helping RAS help the birds.
