I birded the Melchor Tract Park this morning. An Eastern Bluebird sat up for a photo in the taller patch closest to the parking lot.
A Common Raven croaked as it flew by over the park.
It was another good day for sparrows and other migrants. I counted at least 19 White-throated, 15 Savannah, 5 Field, 3 Swamp, 3 Chipping Sparrows, and 4 Dark-eyed Juncos among 22 Song Sparrows.
Other notables seen there included Northern Flicker, Eastern Phoebe, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, American Robin, American Goldfinch, nice totals of 37 Cedar Waxwings, 9 Palm Warblers and 46 Red-winged Blackbirds, plus 3 Yellow-rumped Warblers.
My other stop was at the Hollo Road retention pond. The Least Sandpiper was still there, and it was joined by 2 Pectoral Sandpipers.
At the nearby Shoeneck Creek, I spotted a White-crowned Sparrow with 4 White-throated Sparrows, plus 3 Yellow-rumped Warblers.
