This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --Boundary_(ID_02svDQDB3/+O5Hcv3mUVqA) Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT I enjoyed a two hour walk at Lewis Lake PP this morning and activity is building here. Seven warbler species have arrived on territory and are all singing brightly; Nashville, Northern Parula, Yellow-rumped, Black-throated Green, Palm, Black and White and Ovenbird. Surprisingly, the Common Yellowthroat has not arrived yet. Other singers were Blue-headed Vireo, Winter Wren, Hermit Thrush, American Robin, Dark-eyed Junco, Common Grackle, Boreal and Black-capped Chickadees, Blue Jay, Northern Flicker, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Brown Creeper, Swamp, Song and White-throated Sparrows, plus the return of Red-breasted Nuthatch, a species that has been scarce in this area for about nine months. Common Loon was calling from the lakes. Quite the chorus! I've attached a few more photos of the Orchard Oriole at our creek, from yesterday. This bird bathes daily. Were it not for the second wing bar this bird could pass for the Hooded Oriole of California. The Field Sparrow also remains and visits late in the day. The Hermit Thrush in the last photo took a run at me so I was a bit close to what I should not be too close to, at least according to the thrush!
