Hello Tweeters,
With most interest i read Bob Boekelheide ,Migration Count for May in
Clallam County.In particular the large amount of Wilson;s Warbler sighted.
I was puzzled over the high count of this species in my yard, 6 at one
time. The first arrival was a single male on 4-28, what i consider a good
bird in my yard. But when i saw the female few days later , i got realy
excited. Than later one day we counted 6 Wilson Warbler in one Birchtree
The two stayed on, seing them every day. Two days on thursday in the
evening i see both of this birds going on the ground flying quite wild and
fast to the yard. This behavier was going on for about one hour. I was
sitting on the window watching this little birds with facination. To finaly
i saw them picking up nesting material. Since my yard is so full of bushes,
it was impossible to tell where exact there carry the nesting material. I
did not see this birds back since than. This had to be a good year for this
Species. All the birders in the field i talk too seems also seeing this
birds abundant.
