Today, we caught almost all of our birds in the first and last runs - White-crowned Sparrows early and Dark-eyed Juncos late. Just depended on when the little flocks passed through. In our "bigger bird" category, today we added a striking Townsend's Solitaire (likely our only one for the season). Here's the breakdown of today's 17 new birds:
Townsend's Solitaire 1 Yellow-rumped Warbler, Audubon's 1 (very few this year; this one was with the small junco flock at the end of the morning) Song Sparrow, 2 new, 1 banded last year White-crowned Sparrow, Gambel's 6 Dark-eyed Junco, Slate-colored 1 Dark-eyed Junco, Oregon 4 Dark-eyed Junco, Pink-sided 1 Our last week! If you would like to visit, we have one-hour slots (up to 15 visitors at a time) from 7:30-8:30 most weekday mornings (Tues-Fri, we are closed on Mon) and 8, 9, and 10 a.m. one-hour time slots on the weekends. As long as the heat continues, you are more likely to see birds if you come earlier in the morning.
