Notmuch to report thisweek, I stayed home repairing Ike leftovers. I did see some warblers for a few seconds at the feeder but not long enough to ID. There were also kestrels and red-tails aplenty. 

However on the way to work, about a half mile from the plant over at East Liberty, I spotted a female belted kingfisher.  She was feeding at one of the ponds on the company's property.  The pond almost butts up against the road so there is a lot of good drive by viewing and shooting.  It is also fenced off with no tresspassing signs.  I added a placemarker on my Birds at work map, that way if anyone is doing the OBBA II for that area they can add it:

Also put pics over at the OOB website.  In the  member section...Thank goodness for a super-zoom lens.

Happy Birding and God Bless
