First walk ever through Louisville Swamp. I was pleasantly surprised, great park & should be spectacular when the birds start really moving. Thirty-five species.
** BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHERS - First of the year, Found 3 along the trail, north side of the swamp. One singing to another, one farther West chasing bugs. ** PALM WARBLER - First of the year, one bird singing. ** BROWN THRASHER - First of the year, 4 seen and/or heard. ** FIELD SPARROW - First of the year ** YELLOW-RUMPED WARBLER - Stopped counting at 90 as I turned and headed back the way I came. Wow. ** WHITE-THROATED SPARROWS - Stopped counting at 58. ** BROWN-HEADED COWBIRDS - More than I ever cared to see in one place. Very active. ** BLUE-WINGED TEAL - 14 Also heard Sandhill Cranes, Turkeys, Pheasants and many Ruby-Crowned Kinglets. Great Egrets in 4 counties this weekend.
