I wasn’t expecting much this morning, but what do I know!
Quite a few migrants observed this morning:
Orchard oriole, male
Osprey
Nashville warbler
Blue-gray gnatcatcher
Indigo Bunting, male
Cedar waxwings, flock of 12-15
Rose-breasted grosbeak, male
Yellow-rumped warbler
Continuing: for about the last 7-10 days, lots of white-throated sparrows, goldfinch & purple finch. Juncos seem to have moved on.
No hummingbirds yet, but I’ve put up my hummingbird feeders and put out some oranges and grape jelly for the orioles.
Will post some photos later today.
