Gorgeous day. Birded from 8:30 to about 9:45.
I walked to beaver pond. Then around the corn field,
first along the road.
28 species. Beaver spot/ area is always pretty productive.
1 Gorgeous Blue-headed Vireo.
1 R-b Grosbeak
Buncha catbirds.
Buncha eastern phoebes…some sporting some nice
yellow flanks.
2 House Wrens
Numerous Indigo Buntings in fall plumages…. All about
the walk.
Sparrows: lots ! of Song, 3 Swamp, good hand
full of Savannah (in the corn & x’ing the road), ~ 8 White-thr.’s,
1 White-crowned (imm. with the light brown stripy cap), 1 Lincoln’s.
1 Pine Warbler in the pines behind the beaver pond.
(the “pond” is not really a pond but a dry puddle)
3 Co. Yellowthroat
4 Palm Warblers
1 nice Bl-thr Green Warbler
1 gray throated, yellow-ish warbler…. Mourning, (CT
?)…not great looks. At the north end of the corn field..in the
shrubs.
And…..an weird song coming from the corn patch. Lots
of Song and Savannah flitting about….. maybe 16’ in, from the road.
I pished a bit and got great looks at a Carolina Wren.
Happy days
