There was a calling yellow-throated warbler seen from the lookout parking lot
in
pine trees down the hill toward Long Valley Road about 8 am today. Was first
heard just as I started down the road. Parked in the lot and got good looks as
it fed. Really a good time of year since the trees aren't leafed out yet. When
I
drove down toward the boat landing, there were yellow-throated warblers calling
from three different spots from the top of the hill to where you actually turn
to go down to the boat landing. I don't exactly know how many are there but
find
it hard to believe it is all from one bird. Park was pretty quiet otherwise.
Only yellowrumps, with brown thrashers, towhees, field sparrows all very
vocal. First time in 19 spring trips saw tundra swans flying upriver. Black rat
snakes sunning themselves, dutchman's britches in bloom. Good day without many
birds.
Walked both trails at Spring Green Preserve (beautiful day). Lark sparrow but
no
grasshopper. No sign of the mockingbird. First palm warbler of the year.
