[Birdnet] Veery, Swainson's Thrush, and Bobolink at Lytle Ranch 5/22

[Rick Fridell]

Hello,

This evening (5/22)I was able to take advantage of the cool weather and long
days and spend some time birding at Lytle Ranch (Washington Co.).

Highlights included a Veery (in the orchard mulberry tree), a Swainson's
Thrush (under the large Box Elder along the road near the alfalfa field),
and a male Bobolink (in the alfalfa field).  I also saw a Western Flycatcher
that was vocalizing and calling consistent with a Pacific-Slope Fly.

The 40 degree drop in temperature from two days ago really has the birds
active.  The orchard and the area around the ranch houses were particularly
birdy.

A complete list of species observed is included below.

Regards,
