Walked around Frohring Meadows this morning, but there wasn't much
activity in
the marshy bit or on the muddy flats...where I found just one little
sandpiper, and one C. Snipe, along
with the usual killdeer and mallards.
But, the nearby wood edge held a colourful array of singing birds.
A baltimore oriole, male, was already working on his remarkable sack
nest. A first of the season
indigo bunting male was singing from the top of the trees nearby,
joined by a rose breasted grosbeak.
Also two eastern kingbirds, and a few yellow warblers. In the fields,
bobolinks, an e. meadowlark
and lots of savannah sparrows.
Stopped at the park property on Country Lane where wood thrush were
singing, and I saw a a yellow
rumped warbler, and a first lincoln's sparrow. Also a brown creeper
and what seemed to be a pair of juncos.
