This morning we headed out to Rouse Road to look around. Found a pair of Hepatic Tanagers in the usual spot just beyond the railroad tracks. Also saw a Lazuli Bunting and Cassin's Kingbird in the same area.
We continued out Rouse Road for 2.4 more miles...there we saw a lone Hepatic Tanager male. Have posted photos on CFO Facebook page. It was quite close to the road and posed nicely for us. Best looks we have ever had of this bird! In addition we saw: Western Bluebird Mountain Bluebird Say's Phoebe Western Tanager Black-headed Grosbeak Am. Kestral Bullock's Oriole House Wren Yellow Warbler Yellow-rumped Warbler Townsend's Solitaire White-crowned Sparrow Lewis's Woodpecker Western Kingbird All in all a very nice morning of birding!
