Sunday, we didn't even go birding; we just stopped by Paradise Pond after
Mexican food. We logged twenty birds. Seven of them were new birds for us!
Seven!
We've seen the western wood pewee before, but not the eastern. The veery is
new, a nice cinnamon colored thrush. We added another thrush, the
swainson's. We got warblers in breeding plumage. Little sparrow sized
birds dressed up in reds, oranges, yellows, browns, and blacks. The
magnolia warbler, bay breasted warbler, yellow throated vireo, and warbling
vireo.
That moves us on the list from 341 to 348. Wow. We'll have to get serious
about this tomorrow and see what we get.
