Hi C-Birders,
This morning (3 July 2002) I heard a Louisiana Waterthrush singing (sotto
voce) and calling along the creek (Penn Branch) that runs through my back
yard. I live only three miles from the Statehouse here in Columbia. As far
as I know I am several miles from the nearest breeding Louisiana
Waterthrushes (on Fort Jackson). So what we have is a post-breeding
dispersal, but you might as well call it the beginning of the fall warbler
migration.
With temperatures closing in on 100 F. I am ready for a bit of fall.
Can the Worm-eating Warblers and American Redstarts be far behind?
