Hi All.
Birding was outstanding this morning in my backyard. I went out to drink
coffee and read the morning paper, but the birds were extremely active. In
little over an hour I had 27 species! This inludes the Anna’s Hummingbird,
and Rufous and Black-chinned Hummingbirds. Other unusual birds were two
Western Tanagers, one Brown Thrasher, one Spotted Towhee, one White-crowned
Sparrow (I hardly ever get this one as a yard bird), and a flyover Prairie
Falcon. Multiple Orange-crowned Warblers, saw four at one time, one Wilson’s
Warbler and one Yellow-rumped Warbler were also seen.
Needless to say, little of the paper was read! Below is the complete listing
I posted on eBird.
Good Birding!
