[SBB] Sun morning birding at home

["Ann H." <[[email protected]]>]

We have some great back-yard birding this morning!

My son called out:  warblers in the backyard!!!

 

We went to observe, and sure enough, a flock of some 15

yellow-rumped warblers were flitting about the backyard, working the lawn,

shrubs, and trees, and visiting the birdbath.  They moved

to the front yard, and were joined by white-crowned sparrows.

 

Now the warbler flock has returned to the back yard.

The chestnut-backed chickadees are busy at the feeder, my

son had the thrill of standing inside the window but very near

a house finch perched outside, the goldfinch is back on the

seed sock, and the yard is aflutter.

 

What a treat--interesting birding, coming to us.

My birder son (7-years-old) spent about 20 min observing and making

notes in his bird journal; very excited.

 

happy birding!
