Sorry to send this a second time - I sent the first by mistake.
It was a beautiful morning along the Kaw and pretty birdy to o. Some migrants, who usually arrive early, appeared in reasonably large numbers today.
I walked with Joe Harrington today. I listed 38 species. Warbling Vireos sharply increased (16 calling) & Yellow-rumped Warblers were much more numerous (18 most were singing)..Heard the Barred Owl calling, and a Pileated doing the same.
F0S Burcham birds were:
Baltimore Oriole (11 calling)
Swainsons Thrush (4 singing)
Hermit Thrush - (1)
Red-headed-Woodpecker (2 calling)
Eastern Phoebe (2 at breeding sight - their latest return I can recall)
Chipping Sparrow (1)
Northern Parula (2 singing)
Palm Warbler (3 singing)
Common Yellowthroat (1 singing)
Joe also had a Prothonotary Warbler-& an Orange-crowned Warbler, which he tried to point out to me, but I just saw them flit. I believe we heard Tennessee Warblers singing at a distance or incomplete songs, but I did not list.
