The towhee was never relocated in my North Perry yard today. It appears to have headed off to parts unknown. There appeared to be a good turnover of birds today. Best of which was a male BLUE GROSBEAK that was at the towhee feeding area around 4:30 or so. It fed on the ground for about five minutes and at one point was within 5 feet of an indigo bunting. It flew to the east and was not relocated. Other birds of note today (all in my yard), 8 red-headed woodpeckers, Lincoln's sparrow, blackpoll warbler, Tennessee warbler, black-throated blue warbler, Blackburnian warbler, and pine warbler. Yellow-rumped warblers were the most abundant warbler today. There were also a lot of palms. This evening there was one "yellow" palm warbler also.
