This afternoon popped into Island 22 briefly.
Finally saw some Black Swifts. There were about 30 of them feeding over the Fraser among Vaux's Swift and swallows.
A Vaux's Swift for comparison
This guy popped up for a look and probably for a break from looking around in muddy water.
I wondered why this male Purple Finch came down low and scolded at me. Then I saw a little one fresh out of the nest near by. Snapped a picture and then let him believe he drove me away.
Didnt see any Lazuli Buntings which was surprising.
