While busy on yard projects yesterday, I had a PURPLE MARTIN with other
swallows overhead, a first for us here. Another visitor was a RED-EYED
VIREO singing from the alder forest, the first here since the somewhat early
bird of May 13. Mid-June and early Sept. are the most likely "windows" for
this species here.
