Discovery Center Wetlands

Finally got Dad out birding this AM. We haven't birded together in 18
years. Saw Blackpole Warbler, Magnolia Warbler, American Redstart, and Yellow
Warblers. 3 Yellow-Crowned Night Herons, Great Crested Flycatcher were
best.
Lytle Creek Rd/Couch Rd
Took Dad here to find him a Grasshopper Sparrow(Life bird for him), found
it. Had Scissor-tailed Flycatcher sitting on the grass in front of
blooming Thistles(Great contrast) at West end of Lytle Creek Rd.. Loggerhead
Shrikes, Red-Headed Woodpecker, Orchard Orioles on Couch Rd. Scissor Tail
Flycatcher working the open field on the left as you go down Couch Rd. First
time I have seen Scissor Tail this far down Lytle Creek Rd. Good cool
morning of birding
