I thought the light rain this morning might bring in some good birds and
it did. Here are the highlights:
Swallows: well over 100 birds including at least 1 Cliff,
1 Northern Rough-winged and several Barn
Waxwings: large flock of about 70 perched Cedar Waxwings
Warblers: Northern Waterthrush - hard to miss the chip note
and views confirmed the ID
Many Yellow-rumps and 2 Orange-crowned
Sparrows: 2 Henslow's calling in the open fields north of
the wetlands that attract the waterfowl. 1
bird gave me as good a look as I've ever had.
The "bowl" below the picnic table was just burned so
there won't be any there for a while.
1 Grasshopper Sparrow and many, many
White-throated, finally
Grosbeak: 1 female Rose-breasted Grosbeak
