Hi All,
Here in the forest downhill of Summit and uphill of Soquel, we had a FOS Orange-crowned Warbler today, FOS Warbling Vireo on Sunday and a lot of bird action!
I really appreciated Pete’s information about the Easter weekend Migration Pulse! That explains this Sunday….. This is the list of what we (mostly) heard and saw on Sunday late morning. (the list has both migratory and resident birds). The woods were alive with the sound of bird song!
Happy Spring!
