Back during peak migration I mentioned a few Ovenbirds back in Skunk Canyon. I had to head to the east coast for a few weeks and got back up there this morning. Two of the three "territories" that were filled with singing back in May were still vocally active between 8-8:30 a.m. this morning. It's a banner year for Mexican Hats on the trail and also saw/heard Yellow-breasted chats, Black-headed grosbeaks, House Wrens, Plumbeous Vireo, Lazuli Buntings and un'IDd Warblers.
