Ready for High Island
Indeed!!!
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 !!!
I set my self the task of trying to catch migrants in front of the moon
But we are so egalitarian that we also do warbler faces!! Again, thanks to Eric and the Warbler Guide!! The following and more can be found at the website for The Warbler Guide by Tom Stephenson and Scott Whittle. Their book is excellent and innovative!!
Got bird # 148 at the Dacha today: Bullocks Oriole — no pix.
At the end of this group of photos is a super cool pix by Suzie Haas McCann taken on our visit to Anahuac NWR last week (WARNING: the last pix contains a dead bird, somewhat graphic).
On a walk in the neighborhood I had some nice birds today, ash throated, vermillion, scissors flys, grasshopper, lark, chippy, savanna and brewers sparrows, and black capped vireo. No pix.
