Spring has hit my yard! Here's my list for the past 24 hours:
Barn owl
Wild turkeys
CATBIRD!
Chuck-will-widow
Rubythroated hummingbirds (male and female)
Red-eyed vireo
Yellow-throated vireo
Yellow-billed cuckoo
Summer tanagers (male and female)
Yellow-breasted chat
Palm warbler
Magnolia warbler
E. Towhees
plus my usual Northern cardinals (as opposed to what other cardinal
directions?), Mourning doves, Am crows, Blue jays, Tufted titmice, Pileated and
Red-bellied woodpeckers, Bluebirds, E. meadowlarks, Phoebes, and Carolina wrens.
Last evening as I was driving home, I saw two male Rose-breasted grosbeaks fly
across the road ahead of me; none in my yard this morning, tho. When I reached
my driveway and stepped out of the car, the air was unexpectedly redolent of
AUTUMN -- rain-soaked, freeze-killed oak leaves. It took a second for my cortex
to catch up to my olfactory lobe...
Where are my Great-crested flycatchers?
Happy migration, everybody.
