Hello, all--
A very cursory walk down Stribling Ave. Extended this morning yielded some
nice finds. A more painstaking examination (i.e., one conducted without the
constraints of a squirmy 6-month-old) might have yielded even more. Here
are the highlights:
Brown Thrasher (several, singing)
Wood Thrush (several, singing)
Blue-headed Vireo
Blue-winged Warbler
Hooded Warbler
Northern Parula
Ovenbird
Louisiana Waterthrush (pair)
All the Chimney Swifts flying overhead are also a welcome arrival as far as
I'm concerned.
Of course, the cardinals and towhees were doing their best to drown out the
more intriguing calls, but perseverance paid off. The blue-wings were
lifers for us.
