PS I'm confused now, and am inclined to change the Yellow-throated warbler I
posted a week or so ago from McAlpine to a Louisiana waterthrush. I hope
that makes some sense. I've confused their call with Indigo buntings before
too! I've never seen one north of Landsford Canal, so I'm not all that
familiar with their call. I don't have a Mecklenburg Prothonotary either.
What sightings of these birds have you had? (I noted that Wayne posted a YTW
from McAlpine a few weeks ago.)
If it's of interest, as long as I'm eating crow, I think the new
Yellow-crowned night heron nest I posted last week was a false alarm. Two
birds were in a tree with what turns out to probably be a squirrel nest.
There's been no sign of them in that tree since.
