This weekend in Vilas County, we were innundated by Magnolia and Yellow-Rumped
Warblers, stuffing their gobs with bugs. In their mixed flock were also a few
Black-and-White warblers, a Yellow-Throated Vireo, and a few Nashville warblers.
We also had several querelous Hairy woodpeckers, one Downy, and two immature
Yellow-Bellied Sapsuckers - one of whom was hawking for insects, so perhaps it
hasn't read the manual about being a Sapsucker yet.
Female/immature hummingbirds and our Kingfisher were still hanging around (male
hummingbirds seem to have left). Our small lake was loaded with molt feathers
from Hooded Mergansers who summered there; they seem to have left, though.
I was filling the bird bath when a gang of Chickadees and a humming bird lined
up to go through the running water, one by one. Nothing like being roped into
cabin boy service.
