There was a moderate movement of birds here today. The lake is winding down quick with just small numbers of ducks and gulls. Nothing out of the ordinary. There were some blue jays and goldfinches moving along the lakeshore this morning. There were a few orioles moving also with about 50 birds in all. Warblers were slow with about a dozen species. I had over a hundred siskins at my feeders most of the day. There were about a half dozen purple finches and a white-winged crossbill made a brief appearance. I still am getting a junco. I had about 7 orchard orioles and a dozen Baltimore orioles coming to my hummingbird feeders. There were at least 4-5 ruby-throated hummingbirds.
