Paula Hansley and I birded a bit in SE Co on 5/9/10.
PROWERS County
Lamar Community College :
Paula heard a Wood Thrush, and Carolina Wren in the northern part of nature
trail. We saw a Northern Waterthrush, 1, f. Rose-breasted Grosbeak, lots of
Brown Thrashers, many Yellow-rumped Warblers, and some empids which we were not
sure about their idenity,[only heard short calls]. Common Yellowthroats, lots
of House Wrens, and Yellow Warblers. We heard what sounded like 2 different
Cardinals.
BENT County
Temple Grove :
We did not see the Blackpoll Warbler, or Palm Warbler.
There were several Thrushes at the start of the trail, but the lighting was not
the best. Swainson's Thrush was seen, and a probable GRAY-CHEEKED Thrush[plain
gray cheek, with barely just one bit of an eyering], Bird was in shade and
lighting was not optimal. A probable WOOD THRUSH. Don't know what else this
thrush could have been except a Wood thrush. White breast and belly with very
dark large spots on breast, and belly which extended further down on belly than
on other thrush species. The bird had an obvious white eye ring. Again the bird
was in shade and we could not see the legs.
Happy Birding!
