Started slow, but got on some definite signs of autumnal movement in the shadier bits.
A skulky young Gray Catbird was my first for the site (81st species), and my second moqueur at this spot – only need one more for the set – looking at you, Moqueur polyglotte.
18 species in 2 hours, 14 degrees, overcast, winds calm, felt humid.
Also of note:
-Two Swainson’s Thrush.
-The return of Dark-eyed Juncos.
-A White-throated Sparrow with the juncos.
-Single Black-throated Green and Chestnut-sided Warblers were hard work, and I surely missed IDs on a few others, backlit and darty little bastids.
-Four Northern Flickers moving together.
-An upslurred little whistle in the tchway range had me puzzling (Purple Finch? Flycatcher? Tanager? Grosbeak?). I'll figure it out some other day.
