Hi Folks,
My last 3 trips to Brickhouse Road have yielded zero E kingbirds. At
the beginning of May I was tripping over them! They looked as if they
were in pairs back then, too. So, where are they now? Do they choose
not to nest at Brickhouse even though there are plenty of insects and
trees for them? Or do they just become more skulking and so less
visible?
