Subject: [MDBirding] Great yard day!


Hi all! I enjoyed a very active day around the house today. Not only were my feeders swarmed by 45-50 PINE SISKINS all day, but also good numbers of Goldfinches, House Finches and 2 PURPLE FINCHES. At some point a group of Myrtle Warblers pass through, accompanied by a BLUE-HEADED VIREO (yard bird #145!), NASHVILLE WARBLER and Ruby-crowned Kinglets. Just before 4PM a RUSTY BLACKBIRD flew south overhead.

Good birding!
