Hi.
Just thought I would throw these out there, as they have been spotted
in our yard in Suamico this last week.
May 1st I put out our Hummingbird feeders, and a male Ruby Throat has
been feeding daily since that day.
A couple of days ago, we had a Baltimore Oriole on our orange halves.
And last night we had an Indigo Bunting land on our deck, while a
House Wren was in a tree nearby. And I heard a Gray Catbird in the
woods behind us.
Still some Purple Finches and Pine Siskens at our feeders. Along with
the birds that spend all year with us - Nuthatches, Woodpeckers, House
Finches, Cardinals, etc.
I beleive the Bluebirds in our nest box are just about to fledge.
We have not seen that Red Headed Woodpecker since the day it spent
here, I have not relocaed the Pine Warbler, and no more Grosbeaks have
emerged in our yard.
But what an awesome year for birds in our yard!

Cross your fingers the weather is dry enough for the Bay Beach
Wildlife Sanctuary Bird Walk tomorrow morning at 6:30am! Wednesday
gave us a greyt taste of the waves of Warblers we are about to
experience. See you there!!
And a special thanks to Darrell Tessen of the WSO Awards Committee for
presenting a Bronze Award to Ty & Ida Baumann of the BBWS for all of
the hard work they do!! An award that is well deserved!! Many birders
have had the pleasure of seeing their work over 37 years of service
there. Thank you!!
Good Birding!
