I was busy here at home today, but still kept an eye on the yard and stream. The most unusual bird of the day was a Pine Warbler, a species I don't see here often. There were also Yellow-rumped Warblers a couple of Tennessees and a Worm-eating Warbler. The one adult and one juvenile White-crowned Sparrows continue to hang around the feeders and the stream. There were a pair of Rose-breasted Grosbeaks in the stream also. Here is a photo of the Pine Warbler. Here also is the day's list.
