Hi all, I did get to spend some time at Mundy today. There were lots of birds right at the center of Mundy. But birds were coming in one by one giving a good chance to observe them. First I had three Swainsons Thrushes feeding on some fruits, I could not say what those fruits were because canopy was meshed with different trees.
Then I came across mixed hunting flock with chickadees- this consisted of Northern Parula (2), Tennessee (at least two but could have been more), Black-throated Green (2), a Pine warbler, a Blackburnian, a Blackpoll and a beautiful Blue -headed vireo who looked like he had dressed up in crisp clean dress, his throat was 'Tinopal' white, a Yellow-throated Vireo and Red-eyed vireos. There were more birds but I did not have time enough to look at all of them. This year I have seen very few Blue-headed Vireos and only once I have seen Blue Grey Gnatcatchers.
