Spent a few hours at Shaw Sunday. Another birder along Brush Creek trail said he saw as many as 20 towhees just off the left of the trail before it reaches the prairie. I saw at least 5, but no females this time around. They seem to congregate in areas around the brush piles. In addition to the usual contingent of red-headed woodpeckers, I happened on a yellow-rumped warbler just outside the small cedar thicket going east on the prairie trail from Brush Creek trail. Finally having some sunlight and a little luck, enabled me to get a couple of photos of each. http://web.me.com/gbohn/yellowrump.jpg http://web.me.com/gbohn/towhee.jpg ------------------------------------------------------------ The Audubon Society of Missouri's Wild Bird Discussion Forum ASM Website: http://mobirds.org/
