Saturday, Green Cay's front entrance path stayed very busy from morning through around noon - the usual northern parula, palm warbler, yellow-rumped warbler, painted buntings, and various grackles, starlings, and woodpeckers were all around, the yellow-breasted chat was still there, and the ruby-throated hummingbird. But the activity was way up on pine and prairie warblers - several dozen of them...along with a worm-eating warbler, several house wren, and a blue-headed vireo. The pine and prairie warblers have only been sporadic - one here, one there...but this was a good size group of birds.
Least bittern are nesting at Green Cay, juvenile red-shouldered hawks are really active - two brothers have been hanging out together near the martin houses. Purple martins are in force - dozens of them now joined with the tree sparrows in buzzing the water surface for bugs.
