While searching for a calling Hermit Thrush, a lovely male Purple Finch
flew out and landed in the sunshine. Never found the thrush. New waterfowl
since I was there on Wednesday included 4 American Wigeon and one
Bufflehead. The male Gadwalls were displaying at close range at the east end
of the
lake. They fluffed out their head feathers and threw back their heads
jerkily while making a high pitched squeal note, over and over again. The
females weren't impressed.
