Several first of season for me today at my place. Cranes, w throat sparrow, hermit thrush, mr Lincoln, spot towhee and just now woodcock. It don’t hurt much
This is pretty cool!! From Nocturnal Flight Calls FB Group. Video on Youtube
It’s that time of year again. We’re on our 3rd group of Sandhills going over the dacha today 75-100 in each group. (Not sure they’re visible in pix)
I birded a bit on Post Oak, Alum Creek Road and vicinity this morning (Webberville park closed). Had a few migrants and first of seasons including 10 upland sandpipers (some singing), 4 YH Blackbirds, Franklin’s gulls, painted bunting, yellow throated, white-eye, red-eye vireos, northern parulas, pine warblers, and swainson’s hawk. I also resent the Dropbox…
Fall migration is in the air! Dickcissels and at least 4 upland sandpipers going over on this morning’s walk.
Another question for 2022 gulls class: with these long narrow wings with black wingtips I thought I had what species? But what species is it actually?
