Breeding Birds at the Garrett Family Preserve - Saturday, June 8, 2019


The wind was keeping the birds down this morning, but it didn't stop them from singing. Orchard Orioles and Indigo Buntings were especially persistent singers and the Chats were also vocal but very skulky. Common Yellowthroats and Willow Flycatchers however allowed us scope views while they were singing - always a treat!
