Early this morning I was able to quickly relocate the dickcissel that David
Ledwith
reported yesterday. It was signing from the tops of small shrubs to the
right of the blue bird nesting boxes
as you leave the parking area at the Mustang Trailhead. There may actually
be two birds.
As an added bonus, I observed a pair of bobolinks signing from the tops of
the red cedars closest to the parking area.
This is my first springtime sighting of bobolinks at the Meadowood
Recreational Area.
A pair of blue grosbeaks, which are generally common at this location, is
also hanging around the parking area, making for some easy photo
opportunities.
