Hello all,
The cold front brought us a mini-fall out of birds for the backyard.
In addition to our regulars, such as Mourning Dove, Red-bellied and
Downy Woodpeckers, Tufted Titmouse, Carolina Chickadee, White-
breasted Nuthatch, Northern Cardinal we had:
EASTERN PHOEBE
BROWN CREEPER--first for the backyard this season
RUBY-CROWNED KINGLET
HERMIT THRUSH
another big group of AMERICAN ROBINS
BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER--a male. We had a female BLACK-THROATED
BLUE here a couple of days ago.
SONG SPARROW--this specie has been a less frequent visitor for much
of the summer/early fall.
Good birding to all,
Jay and Carol Hadlock
Herndon, VA (Fairfax County)
