I need to compile a list of all my Yard Birds. Even after living here for 10 years, I still 'collect' a new yard bird or two each year.
On Tuesday morning as I was watching the American Goldfinches, I was thrilled to spy this handsome fellow hanging out in the brush.
It's a male Yellow Warbler - a rather straight-forward name.
He was quiet - no singing, so I was glad that he caught my eye.
Mostly yellow with darker wings and fine red stripes on his breast.
I wonder if I'll get to see him again.
And here's yet another new yard bird - a Warbler Vireo!
I need to read up on him and the Yellow Warbler.
And while I was eating dinner Tuesday evening, I looked out to see that my male Bluebird had returned.
No great photos as they were shot through the window.
I did not expect to see him again.
All in all Tuesday was a very special birding day!
It was flat out exhausting!

Wowie zowie! A birding lollapalooza! I hope the bluebird finds a mate and makes a home!
Thanks so much for these pics.

Oh, that yellow warbler is a beauty, Beth! It's so nice to see that your male Bluebird has returned, too--he must feel right at home in your yard!
How exciting. That yellow warbler is beautiful!! You must be so happy that the bluebird returned!
Awesome finding that Yellow Warbler! Some people have seen them here, but mostly up in the mountains. Never heard of a Warbling Vireo! Those are ones that I need to study... can't seem to spot any!
