Morning all,
I did a double walk around the property this morning as there was a lot of activity. Best bird was a PINE WARBLER, #120 for the yard list this year! Also had several Palm Warblers and a single Yellow-rumped, E. Phoebe, immature White-crowned Sparow, Pine Siskins, Purple Finch, Fish Crow (uncommon here), Dark-eyed Juncos, and Ruby-crowned Kinglet, along with the regularly occuring species.

Haven't seen the hummingbird yet today, so perhaps he has finally moved on; I'll keep looking though. He was seen last evening just before dusk, sitting in the dogwood tree and feeding at the one remaining feeder. I got some good scope pictures as he sat forlornly in the rain.
