It was imperative that I get my garden in today, so I decided it was a good day 
to do a Backyard Day List (Rio Grande County). As I worked, I kept the 
binoculars close by as birds flitted through on their magical journeys. 
It turned out to be a truly fantastic day. I counted a total of 37 species, 
which included:

Black-throated Gray Warbler (a backyard first)
Hermit Thrush
Blue Grosbeak (male)
Lincoln’s Sparrow (3 seems like a wave of them coming through)
Green-tailed Towhee
Sage Thrasher
and finished the day with a Peregrine Falcon soaring overhead.

Always fun to beat the brush for birds but on somedays, in the words of 
Dorothy, there’s no place like home!
