Sparse-ness continued, with only 7 new birds today. Luckily we had 8 recaps (all from this season) so we had birds to share with our many visitors today - two groups of bird-loving members of the general public and then a group of Girl Scouts working on their animal habitat badge who were specifically interested in how climate change might be impacting birds. We had a lot to talk about in this year of sparse birds!
Our most interesting bird of the morning was a hatch year Lazuli Bunting - pretty brown bird with just a hint of aqua on a few feathers. Here's the breakdown of today's new birds: Hermit Thrush 1 Yellow-rumped Warbler, intermediate 1 White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 4 Lazuli Bunting 1 We are open 6 days a week, weather permitting through October 23.
