I must be doing something right. Today seems to have been my lucky day. I came home from school and despite the rain, I grabbed an umbrella and went for a walk down a neighborhood path with my 8-month-old baby girl. The path goes by a greenbelt behind a bunch of houses. I could see some warblers flying around in the treetops, so I went back home and got my binoculars. First one I got my glasses on was a nice male Cerulean Warbler! I could see the streaked sides, dark throat-band across white throat/breast/belly, and the blue-hued upperparts were apparent whenever there were leaves or something solid behind him. I also saw a couple of Yellow Warblers, a Palm Warbler, and 3 Rose-breasted Grosbeaks in the same area. A Spotted Sandpiper and Great-blue Heron were on the shore at the neighborhood pond. Add that to the Mourning Warbler and other birds this morning on campus...not a bad day for never actually "going" birding! Good birding!
