MISSBIRDERS,
This morning after viewing the Blood Moon Eclipse I drove to Hurricane
Landing to bird for a couple of hours. I had 3 flocks of migrating Gr.
White-fronted Goose totally about 125 birds. The lake is falling rapidly
exposing lots of mudflats but I could only find 6 species of shorebirds
(Killdeer, Spotted, Gr. Yellowlegs, Least Sand., Pectoral Sand., and a
lone LB Dowitcher); 5 Ring-billed Gulls; dozens of DC Cormorants and
White Pelicans; and a single Bald Eagle. A single Barn Swallow flew over
with a dozen A. Goldfinches not far behind. I had the
FOF-Orange-crowned-1, Nashville-1, and Yellow-rumps Warblers-6. Other
warblers were Blue-winged-1, Black-and-white-1, C. Yellowthroat-5,
Hooded-female, N. Parula-6, Magnolia-5, Pine-3, and Black-throated
Green-4. I could find no sparrows but did have 3 Indigo Buntings.
