I started at Sandy point this morning, looking for a colorful sunrise. I got nada. Gray, cloudy sky with no decent colors. I found no interesting birds on the beach, so I set out for Greenbury Point, which was also a bust. A lone Great Blue Heron at Possum Point provided one photo opp.

On to Quiet Waters. I tried a couple of favorite spots, and was getting ready to quit when I saw a couple of interesting looking small birds, and lucked into a mini-bonanza. A couple of warblers and other small birds made a dull  morning into something far more satisfying.

This Great Blue Heron was the only bird I found at Greenbury Point.

My first White Throated Sparrow of the season.

It will be easier to find Chickadees as the leaves fall off the trees.

This Palm Warbler was very cooperative.

I haven’t seen many Song Sparrows lately.

Two Downy Woodpeckers were examining this nesting box.

I had to get help identifying this Blackpoll Warbler.
