Casual birding in Lyme Center, evening of Oct 3rd
Chatty Black-capped Chickadees lured me across the road to the moist thicket that has been so attractive to migrants. I also was intrigued by some call notes. I found two Hermit Thrush feeding on berries and a silent Gray Catbird. An unsprayed apple tree was very active with chickadees and Ruby-crowned Kinglets. Also saw/heard an Eastern Phoebe and Tufted Titmouse.
In another moist thicket down the road, I found a cooperative threesome that was excellent for species comparison: Song Sparrow, White-throated Sparrow, and the smaller Lincoln's Sparrow.
By the Dartmouth Skiway pond, a Great Blue Heron silently soared over me and landed in the reeds.
Fun birding,
Peg Ackerson
Lyme Center, NH
