This morning Helen, Mary jo and I birded the wooded area of Wilde Lake.
It was a wonderful morning that hosted a great group of birds. At the
bridge we observed from close up, an immature BC NIGHT HERON. For anyone
that needs one for HO CO there are two birds at the lake that are very
easy to see. We watched him preen from about 10-15 feet away.
Along the wooded edge we observed VEERY, WHITE EYE, RED EYE VIREOS,
TENNESSEE, PARULA, CHESTNUT SIDED, MAGNOLIA, BTB, B AND W, and COMMON
YELLOWTHROAT, BALTIMORE ORIOLE. We entered the woods and in a thicket
area we found a GOLDEN-WING. Interestingly, Helen ran into a fellow
yesterday that had seen it in the same area. She did not find it after
his report but we were delighted to find it this morning.
