Birds

If you like watching birds or have any comments about a cool bird in your yard or something, this would be a good place to discuss anything to do with birds.

Finally have Rosie breasted grosbeak this year! 

Heard my first house wren this morning.  Got all kinds of birds moving through. 

Good article.  Great magazine, can always read for free on line.

We get em every year, up here...

Are Towhee's common in Wisconsin? Have one hanging around this year, I've never seen one before. Thought it was a robin at first!!

My pretty boy is back!!! I heard him chattering this morning, sat in my jammies and waited for him!

Not great pictures but Harris sparrow hanging by the feeder.  Great warbler pictures, hardly stand still in the open for id much less pictures.

Bad pic too far away, but hidden feeder six fighting over it

Black and White Warbler, Golden-winged Warbler, Blackburnian Warbler 

First big push of warblers through Kewaunee County...Black-throated Green Warbler, Blue-winged Warbler, Palm Warbler 

Seeing more Orioles this afternoon. No sightings of Hummingbirds yet. 
Lil Goose livin the good life.

Whooping Crane sighting again.  Same field as the 4/12/24, assuming it's the same bird.  Took me 46 years for my first Whooping Crane sighting, then less then 3 weeks for my second.    It was with 5 Sandhills this morning and very close to the road, so I got a clearer picture this time.

Saw my first Orioles here yesterday too 

First oriole here yesterday-about 3 days early.  

Orioles at the feeder a week earlier than last year. Greater Marshfield area
