Hermit Thrush at Greenbury Point.

Posted on by

The last two weeks have been spotty as far as finding interesting birds is concerned. “Interesting” means migrating, for the most part.

Sparrows  are coming through in big numbers, as well as Kinglets and catbirds.  Warblers have gotten harder to find , but there’s still a few to be found.

The weather has been unusually mild, and rain has been moderate.  A good Nor’easter might bring us some good birds.
