Signs of Spring at Turnbull NWR

Signs of Spring at Turnbull NWR

In March, as I walked down the Pine Lake Loop path I began to see spring activity increasing at Turnbull. On Winslow pool, I saw a pair of Trumpeter Swans dipping their long necks into the water to consume the aquatic plants, roots and tubers.

Peaceful Valley Birds, June 1st

I was visiting family in Peaceful Valley yesterday afternoon & they wanted me to ID these birds that have been hanging around their house.  Several Lesser Goldfinch coming to their feeder. (And the Cedar Waxwing seems to favor their yard).  A few photos attached.  Thanks, Jim Patten

Greenbluff Bird Observations

Eastern kingbirds have joined their western "cousins" to feed on growing insect populations.

Yellow warblers are singing and flitting through roadside stands of blooming ninebark and wild rose. 

Tree swallows are tending eggs and newly-hatched young in nestboxes.

West Plains, May 31st

A bit of a gray & windy day on the West Plains, but I took another long walk along Thorpe Road south of  Airway Heights. Highlight of the day was seeing Bullock's Oriole - male & female, Western Kingbird, and Mountain Bluebirds still in the area.
