It was warm, heading quickly toward hot and humid this morning. I decided to try Greenbury Point for a change, and it was barely OK.
The sunrise wasn’t particularly spectacular, and the birds weren’t much to talk about either, with the exception of the Lincoln’s Sparrow, a bird that;s been rare for me.
Sunrise at Possum Point.
Red Eyed Vireos are common, but can be hard to find.
Several Blue Grosbeaks were foraging in the area.
Yellow Breasted Chats regularly breed at Greenbury Point.
The Goldfinches are in breeding plumage
Although I knew about this Osprey platform about a 1/4 mile from the water, this is the first time I’ve seen it occupied.
I was surprised to see this Lincoln’s Sparrow, a first for me at the point.
This Monarch Butterfly may be a bit early.
