Hi folks,
I was playing hookey from Ovenbird patrol this morning (having found another
nest yesterday and a few sets of fledglings up to 4 days old).
I headed down to Jackson for some mid morning river birding. State birds for
me were the following:
Little Blue Heron (1)
Miss. Kite (1)
Northern rough-winged Swallow
Painted Bunting (3)
And I enjoyed the MANY Kentuckies, P. citrina, Parulas and other common
warblers. The local subspecies of Common Yellowthroat do look a bit
different from the ones up in MA. They sound a little different too. I have
yet to get good looks at Swainsons WA for this state (Congaree, here I
come). I also had another B-t Blue. This time a female.
Last week I stated that I had "a singing Alder Flycatcher (in the
forest)"... I meant Acadian... What the heck. They both start with "A".
