This morning at Walden Ponds, while attempting to get a Merlin recording of a recently arrived Northern Rough-winged Swallow pair, I heard a familiar trill behind me. "Northern Parula" popped up on my iPhone screen. There were also Yellow-rumped Warblers in the vicinity. Looking for the parula, I saw a warbler size bird fly up to a cottonwood and a search with bins confirmed it was the parula. There were also singing Yellow Warblers.
At the same time that migrants were arriving or passing through, early nesters were also active. Several pair of Canada Geese were herding downy goslings, a Morning Dove was on the nest, and a flicker was excavating a new cavity in a cottonwood snag.
Things are lively out there.
