Grosbeaks and Waxwings

[Wetlander]

Over the past 3 days a few Evening Grosbeaks passed thru, no feeder, so they moved on. Cedar Waxwings have been zipping about over the past 2 days with the sounds of calling Swainson's Thrush. On the slough Mallards with ducklings and Blue winged Teals and occasionally Cinnamon Teal. About a week ago, a pair of Lazuli Bunting, and they show up every 2 or 3 days so hoping they are nesting in the area. Orioles are calling, with a few Am Goldfinch, WW Peewees and a sora was calling 4 days ago. A bit of hummingbird activity, both Anna's and Rufous. In the distance Turkey Vultures, Bald Eagles and the occasional Red Tailed Hawk.

Thanks for the update Kev. Good chance a Lazuli Bunting will nest as your area has great habitat for them.
