The Birding at Blacklick Woods was pretty good today. First bird was a singing Philadelphia Vireo, nice yellow throat and eyeline on this individual. Good numbers of warblers around Buttonbush Trail and the Barred Owl is perching out in the open again. A bit of a scare occurred when a Black-throated Blue Warbler hit the window, a beautiful male. It sat around in the Hemlock tree I put it in and 20 minutes later it flew off. I hope the little guy is ok! highlights reel below:
