O.K., I suppose that if after all these years birding hasn't driven me
insane - hold those comments, please ;-) - then it probably won't. But
times like this make me wonder . . .
Last Saturday, I found a male Magnolia Warbler near the office at
Deseret Ranch. On Monday, a good-sized group of birders searched the
same area for about two hours with no luck. I've checked the area
every day since while doing field work on the ranch. Nothing. Zilch.
Nada. I turned up a Red-eyed Vireo yesterday, but no signs of the
Magnolia for a week.
So today, at about 11 a.m., I step outside the office for a quick peak
before heading to SLC, and the third bird I see (after Common
Yellowthroat and Gray Catbird) is the Magnolia Warbler. I have no idea
where he was hiding all week, but he's still here.
Really, I don't think I'm crazy yet . . .
