Flight calls have thinned out a bunch, but there are some very interesting spectograms resulting from my airspace, inc. possible Clay-colored Sparrow.Caleb Putnamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05661340389049835641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7185214501681178697.post-1409202490532542802009-10-14T11:22:07.031-04:002009-10-14T11:22:07.031-04:00Yeah there have been loads of sparrows, bluebirds,...Yeah there have been loads of sparrows, bluebirds, waxwings, and such all over the yard for the past few days. Best birds thus far came in the form of a large blackbird flock (~500) that was roosting in the tall spruces and dropping in on the corn field adjacent to the house. Among them was one female type YH Blackbird, a dozen Rusties, and at least 3 Brewers Blackbirds. Interestingly zero cowbirds or grackles though...Sean Fitzgeraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457249500616280424noreply@blogger.com
