Thinking that things couldn't be any slower than Barr Lake(mentioned in earlier post by Loch Kilpatrick ), I headed to Crow Valley Campground. The only birds of interest were a Common Poorwill, Golden-crowned Kinglet, Orchard Orioles, one Hermit Thrush, a few Swainson's Thrush and a Dusky Flycatcher. All the birds reported yesterday were long gone!! The poor representation of warblers included a couple of Yellows, a few Yellow-rumps, and one Orange-crowned. No Vireos.. No Tanagers...No Grosbeaks! I can't remember this place being so slow in mid-May. My next stop was a more normal looking Norma's Grove. This small oasis held a Northern Waterthrush and a beautiful Veery. Photos of the Northern Waterthrush can be seen in the rare and uncommon gallery below:
