A short listen to the chorus at the Salmon Creek FLLT preserve this
morning revealed the usual breeding species, and no migrants- and no
Ceruleans, as has sadly been the case for several years now. I did not
hear Acadian Flycatcher, but did not go up the side ravines.
Scarlet Tanager
E wood-Pewee
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher
Great Crested Flycatcher
Least Flycatcher
Veery (lots)
Wood Thrush (not enough)
Catbird (too many)
Rose-breasted Grosbeak
Indigo Bunting
Yellow-billed Cuckoo
Warbling Vireo
Red-eyed Vireo
Yellow-throated Vireo
all the usual woodpeckers
Yellow Warbler
Common Yellowthroat (tons)
MOURNING WARBLER- heard in the dense shrubbery on the right before
Brooks Hill Rd- have had them there in other years)
Am Redstart (distant, down by the creek)
Cedar Waxwing (a gang)
B. Oriole (many)
C. Raven (breeding??? they are around regularly)
and probably others I have forgotten- I was just there for the overall
musical effect- you want precision, ask somebody else... it was a
beautiful, soft, singing morning. Even with all those Catbirds.
