Well, the old sprinkler on the shrubbery did it again today (August
21). With all the heat (90 F) and relatively dry weather, thought I'd
see if I could draw in any early fall migrants.
Initially got lots of cardinals, towhees, chickadees, titmice, and
wrens taking sprinkler "leaf baths." Then amidst the crowd I spotted
her--an immature Cerulean Warbler--first fall female, according to Dunn
and Garrett's Warblers. Standard cerulean patterns with an all green
back--no blue, no streaking.
Woo-hoo! Time to starting looking for fall migrants and crank up
that sprinkler late in the afternoon.
