Title: May - 18th - Rouge
Post by: Shortsighted on May 18, 2023, 04:02:36 PM

Yesterday there were plenty of Bay-breasted warblers but today I didn't see a single one. Less activity in general. Almost every warbler I did see was a Yellow-rumped (male and female) and I didn't even try to capture a shot of one because I was looking for other species ... any other species. Spotted a female Yellow early-on and eventually a Palm warbler but it wasn't easy. I could hear a Great crested flycatcher calling but couldn't locate it. Same deal with a Pileated WP. Near the water the fallen logs were being utilized by Spotted sandpipers. I must have seen half a dozen of them. Also spotted a RB grosbeak after emerging from between dense bushes. GBH were making nests on the top of the tallest trees.
