2013-11-26 Thread Sean Sime
This morning at roughly 11am I was treated to views of a bathing Orange-crowned Warbler where the Lullwater opens up towards the Peninsula. The bird preened for a few minutes at eye level and eventually worked it's way high into the trees and across Wellhouse Drive onto the base of Lookout Hill.

. There is a considerable amount of waist to head high brush that birds were staying low in. Looks at most birds were brief and a lot of patience will be required to get good looks at things. As always, I would recommend sharing cell numbers with birders who are there. Good luck if you go! Sean Sime
