The bog is still productive and lots of birds still singing - but for how much longer????
New species today was rose-breasted grosbeak and broad winged hawk. On Tuesday a quicky trip into the north end yielded a ruffed grouse. We also spotted and heard the bleating call of a fawn deer that was very high pitched and sounded like a great crested flycatcher - of which there are quite a few in the bog. Lots of Nashville and pine warblers and a few magnolias and black-throated blues. Buckets of black-throated greens and ovenbirds as expected. Still no Canada warblers in the Bog. Here is todays list:

We are planning one more "breeding season" survey before 7/15 and I would very much like to get a few more ears in the bog. So, if you are a good by-ear birder and want to join us, it would be great to have you. Send me a PM or call me 475-5555 to arrange a time.
