A quick note, yesterday (5/12/08) I had a Gray-cheeked Thrush give me
amazing views out in the open, giving me good looks at the lack of any buffy
tones on the face and a clean white partial eyering, yard bird #155!!!!
I had an amazing morning today (5/13/08), 56 species in about 2 hours. I was
surprised that I had 5+ Chestnut-sided Warblers, this is extremely high for
the spring, but in the fall it would be about average. By far the biggest
highlight of the day was a singing ALDER FLYCATCHER, a new yard bird #156!.
It's pretty rare that I get a new yard bird 2 days in a row!
Other highlights from this morning:
Northern Bobwhite - 1 male (VERY good bird for the yard, I think this is the
3rd time in 5 years)
Yellow Warbler - 1
Magnolia - 2 males
Pine Warbler - 3+
Prairie Warbler - 2
Amreican Redstart - 2 (male and female)
Ovenbird - 1
Louisiana Waterthrush - 2+
Kentucky Warbler - 1
Common Yellowthroat - 2
Canada Warbler - 2
Yellow-breasted Chat - 5+
Scarlet Tanager - 2+
Summer Tanager - 3+
White-throated Sparrow - 1
Rose-breasted Grosbeak - 1
Blue Grosbeak - 1
Cedar Waxwing - 9 (There was a flock of 9 that I saw yesterday too, probably
the same flock)
Good Birding!!
