Beckham Bird Club Field Trip to the Anchorage Trail in Louisville
It was a wet morning with off and on showers. At one point we decided to quit
but the rain stopped when we got back to the cars so we decided to continue on
with the field trip and we were glad we did. The wet birders found 51 species
including 12 species of warblers. A Connecticut Warbler was seen only by a
leader as it popped up once and disappeared. Other birds of interest were
Yellow-bellied Flycatcher, White-eyed Vireo, Blue-winged Teal, Rose-breasted
Grosbeak, a beautiful Wood Thrush, Philadelphia Vireos, Veery, Prairie Warbler,
and Parula. Another interesting sight was at a patch of Jewel Weed where lots
of Ruby-throated Hummingbirds were buzzing all over the flowers, chasing one
another and taking breaks on the nearest twig. A good trip despite the rain.
