Hi Everyone,
Friend Mike Sanders drove up from Bristol yesterday to bird around our place
before going to the BCBC picnic with us in the evening. We found 47 species for
the day, eleven of them being warblers. I was a bit surprised to find that many
warblers at our place this early in August. The most unusual birds for the day
were a Chestnut-sided Warbler and a Rose-breasted Grosbeak. We had 4 woodpecker
species, 3 flycatchers and 3 Vireo species.
Here is the complete list for the day.
