For the plantations bird walk this morning (8-9am) we were along Forest Home Drive above Beebe lake and heard a black-throated blue coming from the direction of Mann, but also a cerulean a couple trees east of it. Too high up for visuals, alas.
Also heard on that walk were a blackpoll, magnolia, and black-throated green across the lake. Orioles were nestbuilding, one had incorporated a cardinal 'purdy birdy' into its melody, swifts were chattering away with the low cloud ceiling, a junco and a chipping sparrow were counter-singing for comparison, a couple white-crowned sparrows were foraging wih common yellowthroats in the gardens. Many catbirds and cowbirds in the area.
