Good morning out. All the mundane are about, birds like: phoebe, sapsuckers, flickers, song sparrows.ah, but we still love them ! Started at Houghton Hill "Zeeb" marsh (Thetford). Am. Bittern was "galumping" away. Virginia Rail was "tick-tick-ticking" not far from the car park along the road. Swamp Sparrows abound. Hoodies and Woodies are in the "big pool" at far end of marsh. Godfrey Rd had a lovely visual and singing Pine Warbler. such a gorgeous bird. (audially not to be confused with a Junco). No East. Meadowlarks on Stevens Rd. No LoWa either. Nice stream further along that road. Did find Barn Swallow pair at a farm along the road. Regulars at Kendall. Water up at Pompy. Campbell Flats produced first Ruby-crowned Kinglet...great song. Right by the beaver pond. Nice Savannah Sparrow singing along the road. No Blue-headed Vireos (yet) All's well in paradise.
