Greetings All
Today Sean Walters and I had a 1 yr old Yellow-crowned Night Heron at Stalker Lake on the n side. If you know Stalker, it was in the spot where shorebirds often are, tho the water level is a tad high now.
Also at Stalker was an apparent Eastern YB Chat, 9 N Cardinals
At the Wray Fish Hatchery, we had a roving flock of nearly 30 Baltimore Orioles, a dozen or so Orchards, a few Bullocks, and a dozen or so ??? Eastern Phoebes appeared to have nested there again, and more notably, 3 Pine Siskins were there
Simmons State Wildlife Area, just n of Beecher, was stunning as usual. 21 Bells Vireos, 10 or so chats, one of which was an Eastern, 2 looked like Westerns, and the rest weren't seen or looked in between. A couple catbirds. Nearly a dozen RH Woodpeckers, etc
At Lions Fishing Hole in Holyoke, Phillips, we had a Hooded Merg and 2 YB Cuckoos.
Good Birding
