Here was our big excitement this week. It was a Dusky-capped flycatcher at Gilman Park.6th or 8th ever in the OC. Last time in 2005-6.





.....and yes we heard it singing and calling many times! It has a very complex song with several very different parts. Check it out.

Only female hummers take care of babies on the nest.
My guess it is an Anna's hummingbird but I don't know where you are located

Those hummers look just about ready to fledge!


More excitement this week, Pine Warbler yesterday. That and the Dusky-capped Flycatcher were lifers.

Not the very best focus; but a very lovely wingspread.

The young hummers will hang around mom for another week or two. I'm always amazed at how fast they go from tiny to fledgling.

Went for a long walk along the Russian River yesterday. It felt like Spring,51 degrees, it sounded like Spring, it is Spring! Early for those of us in the far north, but I'm not complaining. Lots of Brown Creepers, Common Redpolls, White-winged Crossbills. Heard a Varied Thrush. The American Dippers were singing and establishing territory. Saw several Golden-crowned Kinglets and a few Juncos.

Otis, perhaps a Common Poorwill?

You can probably find a call some where online , like Cornell bird sounds.


EDIT, like this one

Scroll down about halfway and they have the recording in the right hand side.
