The weather on the plateau has been blistering hot but the yard birding
has been good.  Today we had a spectacular male Brewster's Warbler,
female American Redstart, Great-crested Flycatcher, male and female
Hooded Warblers, male and female Yellow Warblers, Red-tailed Hawk, and 4
Common Nighthawks.  In the past few days we've seen Worm-eating Warbler,
Blue Grosbeak, Yellow-throated, White-eyed and Red-eyed Vireos, female
Cerulean Warbler, male Blue-winged Warbler, male and female Orchard
Orioles, female Summer Tanager, Cedar Waxwings, Yellow-billed Cuckoo,
Lincoln Sparrow, and Eastern Kingbird.  An immature Eastern Wood Peewee
joined the mature one that has been in the yard all summer and now we
have more chases than an L.A. newscast.  Can't wait for the real
migration to come.
