re:Fall Migration Continues - 2004/11/21 23:00
In the past lots of activity around the birdbath the other day.
Juvenile Robins, Catbirds, Cadrinals, Chickadees and even a Flicker wiating in line for a bath. Last warblers passing through - Black and White, American
Redstarts (both adult and juveniles with yellow markings), Ovenbirds, and a few "yellow" Warblers I couldn't identify. The Hummers are still here, although there are a few more mirgants flittin about. Still have our year- round birds - Woodpeckers, Goldfinches, etc. but I haven't seen any Nuthatches (gladly red or white) Generally speaking for a few months.
A few other observatoins:
I have never seen a male Purple Finch. I did see a female a couple of years ago hangin around with the House Finches.
I've seen Redpolls only once, on a snowy winter day when I stayed home from work because the driving was bad.
assuredly interesting how birds migrate and they don't even stop at my house.
