Sounds like a lot of folks had a lot of new arrivals today. Here too we had, at home,(West Norwich): 1 Ovenbird FOY 2 Rose-breasted Grosbeaks FOY 1 Northern Flicker FOY Black-throated Green Warbler White Throated Sparrows And the usual suspects. Evening Grosbeaks still here. At Wilder Dam, I found: Sara Eisenhauer! ;-)) And we found: Some sort of Flycatcher with a very low toned "quick three beers". Buzzy . Flicked it's tail. Prominent eye-ring, yellowish belly, slightly rufous tail. My best guess at the moment is Willow Flycatcher with a sore throat. :-0 . Stay tuned. Yellow Warblers FOY (for me) Black & White Warb White-crowned Warbler FOY Catbird FOY Carolina Wren Hermit Thrush singing in the distance Song Sparrows Yellow-rumped Warblers Blue Jays Wood Duck male Red-necked Grebe still there Greater Scaup-still there Common Merganser male fly-over Pair Mallards Sara went on sure she saw more... Coming home Beaver Meadow Rd. Broadwing Hawk just sitting in a tree, preening- very worn tail. Let me take lots of pictures. Blue Jay bombed it, no response. A few Swallows flitted about. I though it might be injured , it stayed so long, but finally flew off. -- Cindy Crawford Creature Kinships and Natural Affinities Animal and Nature Paintings, Portraits and Prints www.creaturekinships.com Photos: http://pbase.com/creaturekinships BLOG: http://creature-kinships.blogspot.com/
