I birded at the Lake Farm County Park this morning from 7:30 to 11:00. It was
sunny with no wind. The lake was like glass.
My FOY birds were:
1 Eastern Towhee singing at the very top of a 40 foot tree. Most often I'm
searching for them on the ground amongst all the shrubs.
1 Field Sparrow foraging on a grassy path with White-throated Sparrows,
Hermit Thrushes and American Robins
Suprisingly I did NOT see the Yellow-rumped Warblers or the Blue-gray
Gnatcatchers in the trees along the lake that were fairly numerous a couple
days before. I guess that's what migration is all about. Again there were
many small, flying insects available to eat.
Appended below is my eBird report for the morning.
