I mark all the birds I see in My Field Guide (Nat Geo of North Am birds)
and I cannot find the Townsend's Solitare I saw yesterday. I looked under
Warblers and I only found Townsends...no Solitare. How is this bird
classified?
Thanks

I made it to the cemetery about 3:45 after work, without having seen
Jennifer’s email, so the birds I saw were surprises. Unfortunately I wasn’t
surprised by her warblers, Solitaire, or Sapsuckers. I did find the Western
Bluebirds (didn’t cooperate for counting for me either), and the Downy
Woodpecker with the 3 Ladderbacks. Lots of Juncos and Yellowrumps. Spent
about an hour and a half, might have spent longer if I had read the email
and known about the Black-throated Gray Warbler and other goodies. I
suspect they had wandered out of the cemetery by the time I got there, but
it’s possible that I missed them with so much happening. It just goes to
show how much birding is about being in the right place at the right time
and looking in the right direction.

I usually walk the cemetery. I see more when I walk.

Nope. You’ve just got to drive through and look. No one area is
consistently good. It leads to many frustrating trips there!
