Today's Adventures

imm. Bald Eagle

Rondeau and Blenheim were on today's agenda. I guess the weather is too nice, as there were not many birds, at least first thing in the morning. It seemed to get better as the morning wore on.

Warblers included Black-throated Blue (4), Orange-crowned, Nashville, Palm and Yellow-rumped. Vireos included Red-eyed and Blue-headed. One Indigo Bunting.

Most of the sparrows seemed to be out Marsh Trail. I was hoping to get a look at Sharp-tailed, and one may have been that I never got a handle on.

Red Admiral

At Blenheim Sewage Lagoons, I finally found some Fiery Skippers.

There were actually lots of shorebirds, but most were Dunlin. Quite a number of Turkey Vultures were migrating along with a few other hawks. One was a Red-shouldered.
