--0-1363740181-1288896414=:38511 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Pleasant Hill Cemetery Today's Highlights 1 Townsend's Warbler 1 House Wren 1 Clay-colored Sparrow 3 Pine Warblers 3 Northern Cardinals, 2 Baltimore Orioles 1 Blue-headed Vireo 1 Ruby-crowned Kinglet 5 Chipping Sparrows 1 Orange-crowned Warbler 1 Nashville Warbler 1 Yellow-rumped Warbler 20 plus Bohemian Waxwings 6 Cedar Waxwings 1 American Tree Sparrow It took me all week but I finally got a look at the Clay-colored Sparrow first found by Don & Lois Codling, and further confirmed by Peter LeBlanc. Dennis Garratt's sole Bohemian Waxwing has grown to two flocks, numbering 20 plus birds and there are still a half dozen Cedar Waxwings present. The lone female Pine Warbler that has been present for about a week has now hooked up with a flock of chickadees and is traveling between the graveyard and the green space over on Kaye Street. A second female Pine Warbler arrived today as well as a bright and quite friendly male Pine Warbler. The Blue-headed Vireo is quite a cooperative individual but so far the Townsend's Warbler, is staying low and is often out of sight. It has a sharp little call note however that gives away its location from time to time. This is how Mike, Fulton and I were able to relocate the little guy. The House Wren appears to be settling in and it is getting quite aggressive towards other birds, today it attacked a Song Sparrow and two days ago I saw it make several quick jabs into the throat of the male Baltimore Oriole, successfully driving it out of a multiflora rose bush. The male Baltimore is a real beaut, his plumage includes a couple patches of color that are so bright that they could rival the glow of any breeding plumage Baltimore. - Cheers, Clarence --0-1363740181-1288896414=:38511 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV><BR>Pleasant Hill Cemetery</DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">Today's Highlights </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm"><BR></DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 Townsend's Warbler </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 House Wren </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 Clay-colored Sparrow</DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">3 Pine Warblers</DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">3 Northern Cardinals, </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">2 Baltimore Orioles </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 Blue-headed Vireo</DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 Ruby-crowned Kinglet</DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">5 Chipping Sparrows</DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 Orange-crowned Warbler</DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 Nashville Warbler </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 Yellow-rumped Warbler </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">20 plus Bohemian Waxwings </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">6 Cedar Waxwings </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">1 American Tree Sparrow </DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm"><BR></DIV> <P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm">It took me all week but I finally got a look at the Clay-colored Sparrow first found by Don & Lois Codling, and further confirmed by Peter LeBlanc.
