All my usual bird harbingers of Spring are now here (House Wren, Yellow Warbler, Bullock's Oriole, BH Grosbeak, Lazuli Bunting, Swainson's Hawk, RW Blackbird, Black-chinned Hummingbird) except for Western Tanager. Tanager can be fickle along the Snake River Bottoms. Sometimes, passing through in large numbers, other times...one or two & have to be at right place at right time. If I miss at home, will head into mountains to a spot that never fails me to locate one.
