Post by: rickeckley on April 15, 2013, 05:32:30 PM

I had 2 hours in the Wet Woods this afternoon and saw my first warbler of the season - about 6 Yellow-Rumps in among huge numbers of G.C.Kinglets at the back of the wet woods near the road.  A few other birds, too.

Sapsucker
Flicker (up to 8 hanging out together)
W.B.Nuthatch (so common in High Park near my house , yet I rarely see them at the Spit)
Creeper
Phoebe
Winter Wren
G.C. Kinglet
Yellow-Rumped Warbler
Song Sparrow
Junco
Cowbird

I saw mine today, also at the spit.  Lots of pine warblers, yellow-rumped, and northen flickers.  Here's my first warbler photo od the year: pine.  Also spotted a white-eyed vireo.

Nice photo.  I saw a bunch of pines today as well as some other great birds (I'll post later) but none of my photos are as nice as yours.  And you saw the white-eyed - lucky devil.
