Subject: [sbcobirding] Northern Waterthrush at Andree Clark Bird Refuge
The willow grove at the east end had lots of activity after I worked it for
a while. Two visuals and two call bouts of Northern Waterthrush, but also
couples of Wilson's Warbler, Orange-crowned Warbler, and Yellowthroat. The
waterthrush may be the same bird as that seen in mid-Sept. And, this patch
of willows has attracted NoWa in so many previous years. BirdView

shows this nicely.

There may be a Cassin's Vireo in there, but I saw it only once and did not
get sufficient details.
