*******************************************************************************
Winds SE ~17, but despite them there are a significant number of birds in
the more protected areas of town and there are incoming shorebirds. I was
not into checking the birds for diversity but was interested just to see if
the migrants had increased/decreased in sheer numbers. There were a lot
more than this morning to be sure especially the ubiquitous Orioles and
Tanagers and like yesterday numerous thrushes which I did not check
closely...I did not bother with warblers much but see a fair number. Found
a Chuck roosting.
Have not done much in the way of shorebirds this spring, but was told
there is a field that is being flooded which is blanketed with thousands of
shorebirds. If it has to be viewed from a roadside, said to be incredible.
If I can work up some desire I may hit it in the morning for a bit but it
is a good 25 mile round trip from the house vs. my in town at <2
