We had the first Scarlet Tanager of the spring in our yard this morning
- an absolutely stunning male glowing in the morning sunshine as he sat
in a treetop - and saw three Broadwing Hawks going north. Alphie is
still guarding both sugar water feeders and giving us some terrific
views of his fiery gorget but an immature male Ruby-throated that came
yesterday seems determined to feed here also, so they are having some
aerial dogfights which are amazing to watch.
We leave Tuesday morning for Dauphin Island and then on to High Island
and hope the migration will be in full flow by the time we get to the
coast. Any suggestions from recent visitors to these areas will be
appreciated.
