The last day of April and
eventually full sun, but hazy cloud prior to that big reveal. The northern breeze was quite a slap in the face this morning, making the 3-degrees feel much colder. The park was not as peopled today, but dog walkers still managed to arrive
just as I had found something to photograph. FOY today included: White-crowned sparrow and Northern waterthrush. Some of the regular visitors: Hermit thrush, Flickers, RC kinglets, Palm warbler, Nashville warbler, Myrtle warbler, Common yellowthroat, Eastern towhee (M), Baltimore oriole, Loon (h), House wren, RBWP, and Hairy WP. There are still uncountable White-throated sparrows about and among all those I saw only two Song sparrows chasing each other. I haven't seen the Brown thrasher for quite some time now. I have no idea where it is hiding. Still no further reappearance of a Veery. They both disappeared at about the same time. Those two are up to something, I'm certain. RTH was circling and so was a T. vulture.
