A group of Nighthawks of about the same size was at Gaddy in the same areas Patrick mentioned the day before as well - Sunday afternoon 9/6. I also saw that day: Wilson's warbler - female Canada Warbler Redstarts - male and female Hermit Thrush Various Woodpeckers Another fun couple was present, Larry & Linda. They said they saw (that same day) a Black-throated Green, a Gray-cheeked Thrush, and a Red-eyed Vireo - and recommended checking out an area they called Emminger Park. Anyone else been there? Today, out at Shaw Arboretum, my mother, husband and I saw: Yellow-Breasted Chat - a lifer for all three of us, yeah! Summer Tanager - female Tufted Titmice - a flock Bluebirds - a flock Flycatchers everywhere...and many pewees... Carolina or Black-capped Chickadees - didn't get the ID quite right to say which Gnatcatchers Philadephia Vireo Warbling Vireo Carolina Wren Downy Woodpeckers Red-bellied Woodpeckers Nighthawks - another large flock Bluejays, goldfinch, lots of unidentified sparrows except for the Field Sparrow and lots more unidentified feathered friends, lizards, frogs, butterflies and lovely lovely flora Christina McClarren South St. Louis City [log in to unmask] ---- Patrick Maloney <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Nothing doing in TGP Gaddy at 4:00 pm, but a huge bunch (50-75) nighthawks circling over the field just northeast of Gaddy. They didn't linger but moved continuously off to the southeast. Nice show while it lasted though! > > ------------------------------------------------------------ > The Audubon Society of Missouri's Wild Bird Discussion Forum > List archives: https://po.missouri.edu/archives/mobirds-l.html ------------------------------------------------------------ The Audubon Society of Missouri's Wild Bird Discussion Forum ASM Website: http://mobirds.org/
