Now that the rains have cleared off, at least 50 robins have newly arrived at
this small park in Bellaire. (BTW, Bear Creek has none.)
I saw 3 to 4 rufous hummingbirds, each tend to guard his patch of shrimp plants.
One male calliope near the middle of the park, in low oak growth, probably bug
hunting along with Wilson's warbler. 11:30 a.m.
One possible broad tailed hummingbird, female, with all green crown, back and
tail. Tail is longer than wings, throat fine speckled. Didn't get to see
flanks, however. Not see long enough or close enough to fuss over primary wing
feather lengths.
Others:
2 red breasted nuthatch
house finch
American goldfinch
cardinal
blue jay
mockingbird
1 female pine warbler
yellow rumped warblers
orange crowned warblers
c. chickadees
cedar waxwings
downy woodpecker
red bellied woodpecker
common grackle
red winged blackbirds
RC kinglet
WW doves
