[birding] E.E. Wilson - Robison Road

[William L. Griffiths]

We arrived at E.E. Wilson at 7:15am this morning and the YB Sapsucker was in its tree. The light wasn't optimal but the bird was very vocal which made it an easy identification. It stayed in its tree for about 10 minutes and then crossed the road for about 2 more minutes. We didn't see it after it crossed the road but could hear it close by before we lost contact. E.E. Wilson had the regulars including a brief look at swamp sparrow through binos and scope. Fox and GC sparrows also found.

Robison Road produced two Say's Phoebes and 5+ Western Bluebirds at the yellow (metal) barn on south side of road. Lots of raptors and other common species including white-tailed kite. 35 total species in 3 hours.
