I did some birding at Lake Tawakoni State Park. I got two very interesting
birds. First was a male Hooded Warbler on the left hand loop of the Spring
Point trail. The bird was calling a lot and fanning its tail. I was shocked
to see a male so late. Off the top of my head this is just 2nd fall record
around Lake Tawakoni for a Hooded and about the 12th overall record. 2nd bird
of interest were two small flocks of Pine Siskins calling and flying south a
couple of birds lit in the trees for a few minutes and moved on. There was a
low grade movement of birds. Nothing as interesting as these two though. Due
to surgery i restricted my attempts to cover the park. Other birds that caught
my interest FOF Lincoln's Sparrow and Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. Lingering
White-eyed Vireo and Indigo Buntings. Also decent swallow movement, lots of
Brown Thrashers, 5 Ospreys, Black-throated Green Warbler, Nashville Warbler,
Common Yellowthroat, Wilson's Warbler, Blue-headed Vireo-all singles.
Thrashers, Flickers and House Wrens continued to drift in. I didnt see any
Pelicans-odd with 1000's last weeks and only a couple of Cormorants.
