Bird #57 for the year is the Black-and-white Warbler. We were taking a walk through the Olmsted Woods at the National Cathedral when I saw this bird and was so excited to snap some pictures of it. I was excited because it makes bird #57 for the year which passes my total for last year of 56. Yay!
I’ve photographed a few new birds that I haven’t added to my list yet this year. I am up to 55 birds so far this year. I need to get out and find more birds!
#55 Ruby-throated Hummingbird
#54 Grey Catbird
#53 Eastern Kingbird
This morning I went to Riverbend Park to do some more bird watching. As with other recent park visits, I saw lots and lots of birds I’ve already photographed. I did see two warblers that I’d not seen or photographed before. After doing some research to find out what birds they were, I found that they are both warblers who are migrating north and stop in the park on their way. The new birds are:
#40 Yellow-rumped Warbler
#41 Palm Warbler
Early this morning I went to Ellanor Lawrence Park to look for more new birds. The place was very busy with birds flying all around. So many of them I’ve photographed already this year but I was able to capture 4 new birds to add to the list. I’m now up to 39 birds for 2014. The new birds are:
#36 Chipping Sparrow
#37 House Wren
#38 Eastern Towhee
#39 Eastern Bluebird
