Greetings All,
At Last Chance today, there was a HERMIT WARBLER, likely immature female, kitty corner from the rest stop, feeding on the ground under some sunflowers. It may have flown over to the rest stop after Cathy Sheeter and I left. The BLACK-THROATED BLUE, present for several days, was still there as was a tardy Swainson's (Olive-backed) Thrush. Photos of the warblers can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/photos/36088296@N08/ Jackson Reservoir still had 15 species of shorebirds including 28 AMERICAN GOLDEN-PLOVERS, 3 late Wilson's Phalaropes, about 250 peep, and a Black-bellied Plover. Among the gulls present were about 10 Herring Gulls, a splendid juv THAYER'S GULL, and an adult LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL I guess WHITE-THROATED SPARROWS are in on the parade of eastern birds, with about 15 at Jackson State Park.
