It’s feeling like Summer: heat and almost no new migrants moving through. I had to work hard to squeeze the 14 birds out of the bushes for banding. To make up for this lack, Yellow-billed Cuckoos flitted about the site giving us good views every now and again. And Red-eyed Vireos and Eastern Wood-pewees are calling now in good numbers – another sign that Summer is here.

2 Traill’s Flycatchers
2 Gray Catbirds
4 Red-eyed Vireos
3 Yellow Warblers
1 Indigo Bunting
1 Song Sparrow
1 Baltimore Oriole (pushing the record to 121)
ET’s: 55 spp.
