Rusty's Pool

The back water of the Lower Pool has all the ingredients of habitat that attracts Rusty Blackbirds. And that's what I got after work.

Hoping to get some Warblers,I eventually arrived at the Lower Pool gate. A few minutes waiting,two birds winged in. It's a pair of RUSTY BLACKBIRDS.  I admired their dull color, particularly the female more brown black than her partner. Both birds walked along,flipping over wet leaves while getting closer to me. While watching the Blackbirds, a single GOLDEN CROWNED KINGLET alighted on the thin leaf shrub.

There's a report from Russ Alderson seeing Black & White Warbler on the big fallen tree there.

Warm weather coming Friday thru the weekend. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. 😊


Update Tripper Paul reported three Rusties on Nellie's Lawn 625 pm
