A few good birds
Reports of a nesting pair of Hutton's Vireo, a frisky trio of Pileated Woodpecker, and several Eared Grebe in breeding plumage at Tualatin National Wildlife Refuge lead me to take a quick birding walk there yesterday before sunset. While I did not find any of the birds I was chasing, I was treated to intimate views of an Orange-crowned Warbler and a Common Yellowthroat actively staking out their respective breeding territories, while a nearby pair of Black-capped Chickadee were fully absorbed in the task of excavating their nesting cavity.
ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLER:
COMMON YELLOWTHROAT:
BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEE (nest building pair):
I hope you enjoyed the birds.
