As far as I know the most noteworthy bird in Fields today was a Wood Duck.
I also found a late Yellowthroat (unless they breed in the oasis). Jeff and
Gerard were on their way there this afternoon.
Benson Pond was very slow; the only true migrant I found was a Wilson's
Warbler.
Frenchglen had a few migrants (it is nice to be able to cross the canal at
the new info kiosk at the south end) but the best birds were two that got
away: I am fairly sure that I saw two BAND-TAILED Pigeons come off the
hillside, fly over Frenchglen and head toward P Ranch. I have seen that
species at the refuge once before.
Tim posted the reports of BT BLUE and REDSTART at HQ today. I was there
early afternoon in muggy heat and did not find them. Did find a Mac Warbler
(Candace saw it best) and there were quite a few tanagers around.
