Anybody birding tomorrow? 4/18/22

Hearing migrants on my walk this morning: Yellow, Nashville & Orange crown warblers, Clay-colored Sparrow, Dickcissels, Broad wing Hawk, Great crested fly… Also a new yard bird in Hyde park yesterday: PABU!! I’m getting antsy to get to High Island !!!
And here’s a small challenge for you B3 grads (or anyone else): ID this bird and tell us why. What is the diagnostic field mark?
Spotted towhee, numerous Lincoln, white crown, white throated and chippys at the dacha still today. White eye and yellow throat vireos showed up about a week ago. Summer Tanager first seen on Friday. No sign of great crest fly yet.
Night of September 21 looks like a doosie!!! I think I’ll go birding the morning of the 22nd.
I’m not at home, but neighbor asking me about “ those birds flying over in V formation “ = Sandhills. Eyes to the skies!! And ears!! My favorite sound!!!
