[Birdtalk] Northern Parula at River Lane: NOT

[Glenn B. Barlow]

Folks,

 

This afternoon, from about 4:30 to 7 p.m. Merrill Webb and I patrolled River
Lane with the hope of seeing the No. Parula.  No luck!  Not much of anything
moving around.  In the area of warblers we saw Yellow Warblers and at least
one Yellow-rumped Warbler.  But, nothing rare or unique.  We started looking
at about ¼ mile from the entrance to River Lane, just past the gate to the
farmer’s field (with all the NO TRESSPASSING signs).  We first worked the
trees to the lake, then returned.  Then we worked the trees from the
starting point back to the entrance.

 

However, other birds seen included the following:

 

River Lane:

 

Bullocks Oriole

Clark’s Grebe

American Coot

Killdeer

Mourning Dove

Common Nighthawk

BC Chickadee

No. Rough-winged Swallow

Barn Swallow

Bank Swallow

American Goldfinch (f)

Barn Owl (Merrill found what looks to be its roosting place, to the north,
just past the entrance of River Lane.)

Eurasian Collared-Dove  (at the usual place)

 

West Springville:

 

Forster’s Tern

Cattle Egret (2 in the field with some Black Angus cattle).

 

Good birding!

 

Glenn
